  • What is the licensing cost for Informatica PowerExchange connector for on-premises addon to pipe the data to redshift? Please let us know if any one who has this information, i couldn't find the pricing information in informatica site or anywhere ? help is appreciated.
  • Is there away to transfer data directly from Informatica PowerCenter to Redshift bypassing S3? Basically a direct connect for PowerCenter to RedShift nodes?
  • Can someone please upload a demo for using redshift connector with informatica powercenter.Its confusing, as all the documentation says it can be used with on-premise powercenter installations, but when i click on "Start Trial" button on this page, its asks me to create informatica cloud account.Appreciate if i can get the steps on how to use Redshift connector with powercenter.A video would probably help.Thanks in advance.

  • Hi,I have registered for the Amazon redshift loader and i am currently using the trial version of informatica cloud. I registered for the redshift loader today itself, could you please give me an ETA on when i will get the required loader? Please excuse my lack of knowledge, but i have a question, i have completed the process till the last step as shown in the demo, i.e i am only left with adding the post process step, i have also started a cluster on amazon redshift, is there anything else required on my part?
