Note
This guide assumes that users are familiar with the Amazon Redshift service before using the Amazon Redshift data source.
With Amazon Managed Grafana, you can add Amazon Redshift as a data source by using the AWS data source configuration option in the Grafana workspace console. This feature simplifies adding Amazon Redshift as a data source by discovering your existing Amazon Redshift accounts and manages the configuration of the authentication credentials that are required to access Amazon Redshift. You can use this method to set up authentication and add Amazon Redshift as a data source, or you can manually set up the data source and the necessary authentication credentials using the same method that you would on a self-managed Grafana server.
There are prerequisites for Amazon Redshift to be accessible by Amazon Managed Grafana. For prerequisites associated with using the Amazon Redshift data source, see Prerequisites.
