CREATE DATASHARE

Creates a new datashare in the current database. The owner of this datashare is the issuer of the CREATE DATASHARE command.

Amazon Redshift associates each datashare with a single Amazon Redshift database. You can only add objects from the associated database to a datashare. You can create multiple datashares on the same Amazon Redshift database.

For information about datashares, see Managing data sharing tasks.

To view information about the datashares, use SHOW DATASHARES.
