#3what can you optimize on Redshift? I mean you still need to define data type, schema distribution key...So its still be a pain in the ass.

What’s the PIA you’re referring to?
And it was a pain it didn't scale, changing data types was a bitch, even the amount of GB stored was sometimes off. I mean, today we use Panoply so it offsets a lot of the crap that goes into maintaining Redshift.
But I think that Redshift is just not good enough today and without Panoply its close to impossible to have real scale on it.

well before we used Panoply we used Redshift. And it was a pain it didn't scale, changing data types was a bitch, even the amount of GB stored was sometimes off.
