To create and manage the data products, smava uses Amazon Redshift , a cloud data warehouse. In this post, we show how smava optimized their data platform by using Amazon Redshift Serverless and Amazon Redshift data sharing to overcome right-sizing challenges for unpredictable workloads and further improve price-performance.

Additionally, a TCO calculator generates the TCO estimation of an optimized EMR cluster for facilitating the migration. After you complete the checklist, you’ll have a better understanding of how to design the future architecture. For the compute-heavy workloads such as MapReduce or Hive-on-MR jobs, use CPU-optimized instances.

When migrating Hadoop workloads to Amazon EMR , it’s often difficult to identify the optimal cluster configuration without analyzing existing workloads by hand. It enables compute such as EMR instances and storage such as Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) data lakes to scale. For more information, see the GitHub repo.
