Rules and Guidelines for Creating an Amazon Redshift Target

Rules and Guidelines for Creating an Amazon Redshift Target

Use the following rules and guidelines when you create a new Amazon Redshift target:
  • You cannot define a primary key on the target table.
  • You must select the connection for the new target data object in the
    Connection
    property after you create a new target.
  • You must import an Amazon Redshift data object in the Developer tool to read the tables from the newly created target.
  • The Data Integration Service creates the new target table with the name specified in the
    Native Name
    property in the
    Data Object Details
    tab or the
    Table Name
    advanced properties of the data object write operation.
  • When you create a new target, the Data Integration Service maps all the binary port from the source to the string port in the target.
  • When you create a new target, the Data Integration Service creates all the columns of the target table in the following manner:
    • Creates all the columns of the target table as nullable.
    • Creates all the columns of the SmallInt, Int, and Boolean data types as Bigint data type.
    • Creates all the columns of the Date data type as Timestamp data type.
    • Creates all the columns of the String data type as Varchar data type.
  • When you create a new target, you must select the value of the
    Target Schema Strategy
    property as
    CREATE
    and provide the value of the
    Schema Name
    property.
