Amazon Redshift to Mysql using Pentaho Data Integration

Question

We are using Amazon redshift and the data base is POSTGRESQL.Tha data sit in amazon cloud. We need to load data from Amazon redshift to Mysql using Pentaho Data Integration Soft

Answer 1

I'll try to help you.

The redshift connection will need the PostgreSql JDBC in the lib folder of your pentaho data-integration. But the one that comes with Pentaho have some issues with redshift, this may be solved by removing the existent and use the version 8.4 (as seen on this link)

After that you may create a new connection on a transformation, using a table input step. You query should run just fine.

You may add a table output step, connected to a mysql database (you'll need to download de MySQL JDBC connector and place on the lib folder too).

An alternative output is the MySQL Bulk Loader Step that has a awesome performance. But for first tests the Table Output Step should do the work.
