well before we used Panoply we used Redshift.

And it was a pain it didn't scale, changing data types was a bitch, even the amount of GB stored was sometimes off. I mean, today we use Panoply so it offsets a lot of the crap that goes into maintaining Redshift.

But I think that Redshift is just not good enough today and without Panoply its close to impossible to have real scale on it.

John Im not sure I understand your first comment, using Panoply you dont need to do any of that and with Panoply's automation they were able to optimize and save all that time and money
