RedShift vs Elasticsearch
As a data engineer, you are constantly making trade-offs, and evaluating which technology will be best for your use case.
By this point in the class, we have learned 3 ways to "query" and ask questions of data:
- Kinesis Data Analytics
- Amazon RedShift
- Elasticsearch
Let's examine a few use cases and categorize them accordingly - would they be better served by streaming analytics, a structured database like RedShift, or an unstructured database like Elasticsearch?
