Viewing properties for a workgroup

In Amazon Redshift Serverless, a workgroup is a collection of resources available for use. When you choose Amazon Redshift Serverless, in the AWS console, you can choose Workgroup configuration from the navigation menu to view a list. You can use the Search box to find workgroups that meet your search criteria. Each workgroup entry has a few properties displayed:

  • Workgroup - The name of the workgroup. You can select it to view and edit the workgroup's properties.

  • Status - Shows whether the workgroup is available.

  • Namespace - The namespace associated with the workgroup. Each workgroup is associated with one namespace.

  • Creation date - The date the workgroup was created.

Workgroup properties

You can list workgroups by choosing Workgroup configuration in the left menu. Then you can choose a workgroup from the list. Several panels show properties for the workgroup. You can also perform actions. General information displays the following:

  • Workgroup - The name of the workgroup.

  • Namespace - The namespace associated with the workgroup. You can choose it to view its properties. A workgroup is associated with a single namespace.

  • Date created - When the workgroup was created.

  • Status - Indicates if the workgroup resources are available. If it's available, you can connect with a client to the Amazon Redshift Serverless instance, in order to query data or create database resources, or you can connect with query editor v2.

  • Endpoint - The URL.

  • JDBC URL - The URL to establish JDBC client connections. You can use this URL to connect with a JDBC driver for Amazon Redshift. For more information, see Configuring a connection for JDBC driver version 2.1 for Amazon Redshift.

  • ODBC URL - The URL to establish ODBC client connections. It contains properties, like the database and user ID, and their values.

The Data access tab contains several panels:

  • Network and security - You can see network properties, such as the Virtual private cloud (VPC) identifier, VPC security group list, Enhanced VPC routing, and the Publicly accessible setting. If you choose Edit, you can change these settings. Additionally, you can select Turn on enhanced VPC routing, which routes network traffic between your serverless database and data repositories through a VPC, for enhanced privacy and security. You can also select Turn on Public Accessible, which makes the database publicly accessible from outside the VPC, allowing instances and devices to connect.

  • Redshift managed VPC endpoints - You can create managed VPC endpoints to access Amazon Redshift Serverless from another VPC.

The Limits tab has settings for controlling capacity and use limits for Amazon Redshift Serverless. It contains the following panels:

  • Base capacity in Redshift processing units (RPUs) - You can set the base capacity of the compute resources used to process your workload. For more information, see Understanding Amazon Redshift Serverless capacity.

  • Usage limits - You can set maximum RPU hours at various frequencies. For instance, you can set a daily RPU maximum. These limits help control your cost and make it more predictable.

  • Query limits - You can set limits on queries, like the timeout setting. These limits help you optimize cost and performance.
