Simplify data integration using zero-ETL from self-managed databases to Amazon Redshift

Database Blog

This article provides a technical guide for setting up zero-ETL integration from self-managed databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, SQL Server, Oracle) to Amazon Redshift for near real-time data replication.

  • Zero-ETL eliminates complex ETL pipeline maintenance while enabling responsive analytics
  • Supports self-managed databases on EC2, on-premises, or other cloud providers
  • Requires network connectivity via Direct Connect, Site-to-Site VPN, or VPC
  • Redshift cluster must use custom parameter group with case-sensitive identifiers enabled
  • Create DMS endpoint, configure Redshift resource policy, then create integration via AWS Glue
  • Data filtering uses Maxwell filter syntax for include/exclude options
  • Monitor integration via CloudWatch metrics and Redshift system views
  • Deletion removes integration but preserves data in source and target databases

This guide enables organizations to replicate transactional data to Redshift for analytics without maintaining complex data pipelines.
