Get a look under the covers of Amazon Redshift, a fast, fully-managed, petabyte-scale data warehouse service for less than $1,000 per TB per year. Learn how Amazon Redshift uses columnar technology, optimized hardware, and massively parallel processing to deliver fast query performance on data sets ranging in size from hundreds of gigabytes to a petabyte or more. We'll also walk through techniques for optimizing performance. Finally, we'll announce new features that we've been working on over the past few months.
