In this post, we walk you through the process of setting up ThoughtSpot integration with HAQM Redshift using IAM Identity Center authentication. The solution provides a secure, streamlined analytics environment that empowers your team to focus on what matters most: discovering and sharing valuable business insights.

In this post, we dive into the newly released feature of HAQM Redshift Data API support for SSO, HAQM Redshift RBAC for row-level security (RLS) and column-level security (CLS), and trusted identity propagation with AWS IAM Identity Center to let corporate identities connect to AWS services securely. We demonstrate how to integrate these services to create a data visualization application using Streamlit, providing secure, role-based access that simplifies user management while making sure that your organization can make data-driven decisions with enhanced security and ease.

In this post, we explore a solution using AWS Lake Formation and AWS IAM Identity Center to address the complex challenges of managing and governing legacy data during digital transformation. We demonstrate how enterprises can effectively preserve historical data while enforcing compliance and maintaining user entitlements. This solution enables your organization to maintain robust audit trails, enforce governance controls, and provide secure, role-based access to data.

This blog post provides a step-by-step guide to integrating IAM Identity Center with Microsoft Entra ID as the IdP and configuring HAQM Redshift as an AWS managed application. Additionally, you’ll learn how to set up the HAQM Redshift driver in Tableau, enabling SSO directly within Tableau Desktop.

In this post, we cover how to enable trusted identity propagation with AWS IAM Identity Center, HAQM Redshift, and AWS Lake Formation residing on separate AWS accounts and set up cross-account sharing of an S3 data lake for enterprise identities using AWS Lake Formation to enable analytics using HAQM Redshift. Then we use HAQM QuickSight to build insights using Redshift tables as our data source.
