Creating a VPC endpoint to a Redshift cluster
This recipe will guide you in creating a Redshift VPC endpoint to ensure secure, private connectivity between your Redshift cluster and client applications within your VPC. A VPC is an isolated virtual network within the cloud that provides private access to your resources. By creating this endpoint, you enable direct, secure access to your Redshift cluster from BI tools such as Tableau Online, Qlik Sense, and Looker without exposing your data cluster to a public IP address or routing traffic through the internet.
There are two types of VPC endpoints:
- Interface endpoint
- Gateway endpoint
In this recipe, we will demo two concepts:
- Show you step-by-step how to create an S3 gateway endpoint so that the Redshift cluster can communicate with S3. You can use it later when you create a Glue connection.
- Create a Redshift-managed VPC endpoint so that you can further integrate your BI application. This scenario would...
