The following steps enable users to connect Single Origin to Amazon Redshift. To set up a connection, you will need to use Password authentication with Redshift.

An admin will need to set up a Redshift user for Single Origin & connect using that user.

  1. Log in to your Redshift Console.

  3. Create a user with Password authentication type by running CREATE USER single-origin-user PASSWORD <desired-password>;.
  4. Grant the user privileges.
  5. Now return to the Single Origin app and log in to your account. Navigate to Settings > Single Origin Connectors > Create Connector Settings.
  6. Add a name for your Single Origin Connector.
  7. Select Redshift as the datastore.
  8. Enter the username and password you created in Step 3.
  9. Using the JDBC URL from your Redshift cluster details, fill in the server address.
  10. Using the Database configurations from your Redshift cluster, enter the Port.
  11. Using the Database configurations from your Redshift cluster, enter the Database name.
