I went to Lviv last month for friend's wedding. It became apparent during travel planning that crossing border is non-trivial. In the end, I planned one day for each border crossing, with no other travel on that day. I…

Redshift Serverless is not serverless. A workgroup is a normal, ordinary Redshift cluster. All workgroups are initially created as a 16 node cluster with 8 slices per node, which is the default 128 RPU workgroup, and…

1. I have for some time been working on a browser-based app which is a management console for Amazon Redshift. 2. It is not cloud based - you run it locally, no network access, no superuser, and no privs to read your…

Two new RS versions out - 1.0.49676, which is now in two regions only, and 1.0.49780, which is in all the other regions. Quite a lot of change (new function user_is_member_of_role() in 49676 looks particularly…
