Our most shocking discovery on Redshift was that primary key constraints are not honored. (Not sure why they even have PK identifiers given this, it just adds more confusion.)

This is the case for most column oriented data warehouses (including BigQuery, but Snowflake does allow for 1 PK). It's just the nature of the technology.

Suppose you are using AWS Datapipeline, it will make use of PK to get rid of duplicates.
