How to Automate Redshift Cluster Start/Stop for night time?

I have a AWS Redshift Cluster dc2.8xlarge and currently I am paying huge bill each month for running the cluster 24/7.

Is there a way I can automate the cluster uptime so that the cluster will be running in day time and I can stop the cluster at 8PM in evening and again start it in 8AM in morning.

Solution

  • Good news:

    Now, we are able to pause and resume the Redshift cluster (both Console and CLI)
