Amazon DynamoDB to Amazon Redshift Integration
AI-first ETL from Amazon DynamoDB into Amazon Redshift. Governed entities, incremental sync, typed landing tables.
How Datrise loads Amazon DynamoDB into Amazon Redshift
Datrise syncs Amazon DynamoDB's tables, items, partition keys, sort keys, attributes, and stream records into Amazon Redshift as a typed table per source entity. Flexible or custom fields land in SUPER columns, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as TIMESTAMPTZ.
Sync is incremental: Datrise uses COPY from staged files, then a delete-and-insert merge on stable id, so re-runs update only what changed. A DISTKEY on the join id and a SORTKEY on the load timestamp. Redshift performance hinges on dist/sort keys, so Datrise picks them from your entity ids and sync timestamps rather than defaulting to EVEN distribution.
Ideal for AWS-native warehouses already using the Redshift ecosystem.

How Amazon DynamoDB entities map to Amazon Redshift
| Amazon DynamoDB entity | Amazon Redshift object | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| tables | source_dynamodb_tables | id PK · custom fields → SUPER columns |
| items | source_dynamodb_items | id PK · linked to source_dynamodb_tables |
| partition keys | source_dynamodb_partition_keys | id PK · linked to source_dynamodb_tables |
| sort keys | source_dynamodb_sort_keys | id PK · linked to source_dynamodb_tables |
FAQ
How does Datrise handle Amazon DynamoDB's custom fields in Amazon Redshift?
Flexible values are stored as SUPER columns, so new fields don't require a migration; strongly-typed fields — dates, numbers, and references — are promoted to native Amazon Redshift types.
How does the Amazon DynamoDB to Amazon Redshift sync stay up to date?
It runs incrementally — Datrise uses COPY from staged files, then a delete-and-insert merge on stable id.
