Use CData Sync for automated, continuous, customizable Dynamics 365 replication to Amazon Redshift.
Always-on applications rely on automatic failover capabilities and real-time data access. CData Sync integrates live Dynamics 365 data into your Amazon Redshift instance, allowing you to consolidate all of your data into a single location for archiving, reporting, analytics, machine learning, artificial intelligence and more.
