Amazon Redshift Cluster - Pause and Resume - Series 6



 In this series, let us explore on 'Pause on Schedule' 'Resume on Schedule' option


  • 'Pause on Schedule' or 'Resume on Schedule' is an option where in we can define 'Pause' & 'Resume' based on a cron schedule. For example, I can set for 'Pause' on end of day Friday or Weekend and set for 'Resume' by early Monday Morning or Beginning of the the week, as per the operational needs


 
  • This comes handy, when we have non-prodcution clusters which can be set to 'Pause' state until it is needed later
  • Quick catch is that, when we define 'Pause on Schedule' and if you have selected a 'Resume' window as well, then there are two different schedules that are created to handle the 'Pause' and 'Resume' each separately
