In my other Redshift related article, we have discussed how to define a primary key, Unique key and Foreign key constraint in Amazon Redshift. In this article, we will check how to use Redshift NOT NULL constraint with its syntax and examples. Redshift NOT NULL Constraint Similar to most of the MPP databases such as Snowflake, the Amazon Redshift database allows you to define constraints. The Redshift database does not enforce constraints like primary key, foreign key and unique key. But, it does enforce the NOT NULL constraint. Constraints other…

Amazon Redshift is one of the earliest cloud data warehouses. It is based on the PostgreSQL. There are many features that are common in Redshift and PostgreSQL. Amazon Redshift provides many features to the user who wants to migrate to AWS Redshift. One of such features is primary key constraints. Basically, Redshift supports the referential integrity constraint such as primary key, foreign key, not null and unique key. You can create a primary key during table creation, that is, table DDL or you can use alter table command to add…

The relational databases such as Teradata and Oracle supports the multiple columns in WHERE clause. It is one of the main requirements when you are migrating from legacy databases such as Teradata to Amazon Redshift. In this article, we will check Redshift WHERE clause multiple columns support.
