How to Migrate from Amazon Redshift to Google BigQuery

Skippr is the easiest way to migrate from Redshift to BigQuery and get fully cleansed and modeled data in one run command.

Source: Redshift. Destination: BigQuery.

Sample config

yaml
skippr:
  workspace: redshift_to_bigquery
pipelines:
  redshift_to_bigquery:
    data_source: data_sources.source
    data_sink: data_sinks.warehouse
data_sources:
  source:
    Redshift:
      cluster_identifier: my-cluster
      database: analytics
      db_user: admin
      region: us-east-1
data_sinks:
  warehouse:
    Bigquery:
      project: my-gcp-project
      dataset: raw_data
      location: US

Environment

bash
export GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS="/path/to/service-account.json"
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID="your-key"
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY="your-secret"

Source connector: redshift. Destination connector: bigquery.
