Redshift geospatial support
Redshift continues to develop its geospatial library, and we can see increased adoption of Redshift in mainstream geospatial products, such as the recently announced Esri ArcGIS Enterprise Redshift support. At the time of writing, Redshift has 117 supported geospatial functions, with many more planned. However, the primitives really are already there, which is why we can see adoption in GIS software suites. Redshift also supports User Defined Functions (UDFs), which can run snippets of Python code to run custom computations within a cluster. This works really well when a native function is missing or your workflow requires custom analysis.
