Amazon Redshift Data

Amazon Redshift manages all the work of setting up, operating, and scaling a data warehouse: provisioning capacity, monitoring and backing up the cluster, and applying patches and upgrades to the Amazon Redshift engine. You can focus on using your data to acquire new insights for your business and customers.

Prerequisite Tasks

To use these operators, you must do a few things:

Generic Parameters

aws_conn_id

Reference to Amazon Web Services Connection ID. If this parameter is set to None then the default boto3 behaviour is used without a connection lookup. Otherwise use the credentials stored in the Connection. Default: aws_default

region_name

AWS Region Name. If this parameter is set to None or omitted then region_name from AWS Connection Extra Parameter will be used. Otherwise use the specified value instead of the connection value. Default: None

verify

Whether or not to verify SSL certificates.

  • False - Do not validate SSL certificates.

  • path/to/cert/bundle.pem - A filename of the CA cert bundle to use. You can specify this argument if you want to use a different CA cert bundle than the one used by botocore.

If this parameter is set to None or is omitted then verify from AWS Connection Extra Parameter will be used. Otherwise use the specified value instead of the connection value. Default: None

botocore_config

The provided dictionary is used to construct a botocore.config.Config. This configuration can be used to configure Avoid Throttling exceptions, timeouts, etc.

Example, for more detail about parameters please have a look botocore.config.Config
{
    "signature_version": "unsigned",
    "s3": {
        "us_east_1_regional_endpoint": True,
    },
    "retries": {
      "mode": "standard",
      "max_attempts": 10,
    },
    "connect_timeout": 300,
    "read_timeout": 300,
    "tcp_keepalive": True,
}

If this parameter is set to None or omitted then config_kwargs from AWS Connection Extra Parameter will be used. Otherwise use the specified value instead of the connection value. Default: None

Note

Specifying an empty dictionary, {}, will overwrite the connection configuration for botocore.config.Config

Operators

Execute a statement on an Amazon Redshift cluster

Use the RedshiftDataOperator to execute statements against an Amazon Redshift cluster.

This differs from RedshiftSQLOperator in that it allows users to query and retrieve data via the AWS API and avoid the necessity of a Postgres connection.

tests/system/providers/amazon/aws/example_redshift.py[source]

create_table_redshift_data = RedshiftDataOperator(
    task_id="create_table_redshift_data",
    cluster_identifier=redshift_cluster_identifier,
    database=DB_NAME,
    db_user=DB_LOGIN,
    sql="""
        CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS fruit (
        fruit_id INTEGER,
        name VARCHAR NOT NULL,
        color VARCHAR NOT NULL
        );
    """,
    poll_interval=POLL_INTERVAL,
    wait_for_completion=True,
)
