Question: Is DynamoDB the same as Redshift?
Answer
No, they are not. Though AWS developed both DynamoDB and Redshift, there are significant differences between both database systems. The main difference is Redshift is a large-scale data warehouse service that uses business intelligence tools, while DynamoDB is a cloud-hosted scalable database service. DynamoDB is a popular choice for applications that require a flexible data model and the ability to scale horizontally. Additionally, DynamoDB does not support SQL query language, while Redshift supports SQL query language.
