I have been using Amazon Redshift for a while now, and I have to say that I am very impressed with its performance and reliability. The speed and scalability of this cloud-based data warehousing solution are unmatched, and it has allowed me to process and analyze large amounts of data quickly and efficiently. There are no problems at all if you are transitioning from other solutions in terms of T-SQL. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
