RedShift

Prerequisites

1. A running Amazon Redshift cluster.
2. Ensure xGen is allowed to connect to your Redshift cluster, especially if they are located in separate VPCs.

Configuration Steps

1. Verify Cluster Accessibility
   Ensure that the Redshift cluster is online and reachable from the machine where xGen is running. This depends on your network configuration. To confirm the connection, use the “Check Connection” feature available in the xGen user interface. For guidance on configuring access permissions, refer to the official AWS Redshift documentation.
2. Enter Connection Details
   Provide the required connection parameters for accessing your Redshift cluster. This includes the host, which forms part of the connection string or endpoint URL (excluding the port number and database name). The endpoint generally consists of the cluster identifier, the AWS region, and ends with .redshift.amazonaws.com.
