Alternatives or Active Forks?

Open markdessain opened this issue 6 years ago • 3 comments

Are there any suggestions for alternatives to using spark-redshift?

Having seen that this project is no longer maintained our team does not feel comfortable continuing to use this to connect Spark with Redshift. We're not seeing any issues right now with our current usage but are looking for advice on what we should do next?

Would anyone recommend writing our own UNLOAD and COPY commands to move data in and out of S3 and then just connecting Spark to S3 as usual?

I couldn't spot any active forks, or other libraries that don't require doing a complete move over to Databricks?

Same here. Any news about this?

Same here. As a side project I would love to dig in and see if the community could maintain this project. I mean we have access to all the source.

I just commented on another issue suggesting the same thing, am open to any discussion/thoughts on moving forward with support from the open-source community https://github.com/databricks/spark-redshift/issues/315#issuecomment-435252389
