Export Data from SQL Server to Redshift through SSIS

SQL Server databases are commonly used to store enterprise records. It is often necessary to move this data to other locations. The CData SSIS Task for Redshift allows you to easily transfer Redshift data. In this article you will export data from SQL Server to Redshift.

Add Source and Destination Components

To get started, add a new ADO.NET Source control and a new Redshift Destination control to the data flow task.

Configure the ADO.NET Source

Follow the steps below to specify properties required to connect to the SQL Server instance.

1. Open the ADO.NET Source and add a new connection. Enter your server and database information here.
2. In the Data access mode menu, select "Table or view" and select the table or view to export into Redshift.
3. Close the ADO NET Source wizard and connect it to the destination component.

Create a New Connection Manager for Redshift

Follow the steps below to set required connection properties in the Connection Manager.

1. Create a new connection manager: In the Connection Manager window, right-click and then click New Connection. The Add SSIS Connection Manager dialog is displayed.
2. Select CData Redshift Connection Manager in the menu.
3. Configure the connection properties. A typical connection requires:
   • User
   • Password
   • Database
   • Server
   • Port

   Redshift への接続には次を設定します：

   • Server: 接続するデータベースホストしているクラスタのホスト名およびIP アドレス。
   • Port: クラスタのポート。
   • Database: データベース名、ブランクの場合ユーザーのデフォルトデータベースになります。
   • User: ユーザー名。
   • Password: ユーザーのパスワード。

   Server およびPort の値はAWS の管理コンソールで取得可能です：

   1. Amazon Redshift console (http://console.aws.amazon.com/redshift) を開く。
   2. Clusters ページで、クラスタ名をクリック。
   3. クラスタのConfiguration タブで、表示された接続文字列からクラスタのURL をコピーします。

   Configure the Redshift Destination

   In the destination component Connection Manager, define mappings from the SQL Server source table into the Redshift destination table.

   1. Double-click the Redshift destination to open the destination component editor.
   2. In the Connection Managers tab, select the connection manager previously created.
