In this 12-video course, explore the loading of data from an external source such as Amazon S3 into a Redshift cluster, as well as configuration of snapshots and resizing of clusters. Discover how to use Amazon QuickSight to visualize data. Key concepts covered in this course include using the AWS console to load data sets to Amazon S3 and then into a table provisioned on a Redshift cluster; running queries on data in a Redshift cluster with the query evaluation feature; and working with SQL Workbench to connect to and query data in a Redshift cluster. Learn how to disable automated snapshots for a Redshift cluster and configure a table to be excluded from snapshots; recover an individual table from the snapshot of an entire cluster; and create a security group rule enabling access from Amazon's QuickSight servers to a Redshift cluster. Next, configure Amazon QuickSight to load data from a table in a Redshift cluster for analysis; and use the QuickSight dashboard to generate a time series plot to visualize sales at a retailer over time.
