Amazon Redshift is a data warehouse product which forms part of the larger cloud-computing platform Amazon Web Services. [1] It is built on top of technology from the massive parallel processing (MPP) data warehouse company ParAccel (later acquired by Actian ), [ 2 ] to handle large scale data sets and database migrations . [ 3 ]
Redshift is a techno-economic theory suggesting hypersegmentation [clarification needed] of information technology markets based on whether individual computing needs are over or under-served by Moore's law, which predicts the doubling of computing transistors (and therefore roughly computing power) every two years.
The history of the subject began in the 19th century, with the development of classical wave mechanics and the exploration of phenomena which are associated with the Doppler effect. The effect is named after the Austrian mathematician, Christian Doppler, who offered the first known physical explanation for the phenomenon in 1842. [2]
In 1929, Hubble and Milton Humason formulated the empirical Redshift Distance Law of galaxies, nowadays known as Hubble's law, which, once the Redshift is interpreted as a measure of recession speed, is consistent with the solutions of Einstein's General Relativity Equations for a homogeneous, isotropic expanding universe. The law states that ...
William G. Tifft was an astronomer at the University of Arizona.His main interests were in galaxies, superclusters and redshift quantization. [1] He was influential in the development of the first redshift surveys, and was an early proponent of crewed space astronomy, conducted at a proposed Moon base for example.
In December 2012, the Amazon Redshift database service was announced (and generally available in early 2013) using ParAccel technology. [13] [14] ParAccel was based in California with offices in Campbell and San Diego.
According to the developer's claim, Redshift is the first 3D renderer with full GPU acceleration on the market. It was initially released in 2014 by Redshift Rendering Technologies Inc. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] In 2017 Redshift experimented with a virtual reality input user interface, initially tailored for architects.
Tired light was an idea that came about due to the observation made by Edwin Hubble that distant galaxies have redshifts proportional to their distance.Redshift is a shift in the spectrum of the emitted electromagnetic radiation from an object toward lower energies and frequencies, associated with the phenomenon of the Doppler effect.
