Amazon Redshift’s recent update adds concurrency scaling to streaming materialized views connected to Amazon Kinesis Data Streams. This allows simultaneous ingestion of hundreds of megabytes per second while freeing the main cluster to handle other workloads, facilitating resilient, low-latency analytics.
This feature is available immediately across AWS regions offering Redshift and supports both provisioned clusters and serverless workgroups. Customers can configure streaming ingestion using SQL, enhancing performance for applications requiring real-time insights without compromising query responsiveness or cluster availability.
