Connect to AWS

    Hi All,

    I am completely new to AWS and i'm having trouble getting SSIS to connect to the ODBC driver.

    I have set up the "Amazon Redshift (x64) driver in the ODBC "System DSN"  window and that connects fine.

    I have connected SSMS to the driver via a linked server using the provider "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers" and that connects fine.

    But I cannot figure out which connection manager type in SSIS I should be using? I have searched the usual places, but I am coming up short with an answer.

    I have tried to use ODBC and followed the below guide for the connection string but I don't think that is right.

    https://docs.aws.amazon.com/redshift/latest/mgmt/configure-odbc-connection.html

    If anybody can point me in the right direction that would be great.

    Thanks

    Ok

    If that actually does work it would be a surprise.  Why not directly use the System DSN you already set up?

    According the document: "Amazon Redshift displays the ODBC URL for your cluster in the Amazon Redshift console." So that console will supposedly display the ODBC connection string.  I'm not too familiar with SSIS, it's been a few years, but somewhere it should allow you to specify ODBC parameters for a connection or the entire string.  If you have to specify parameters then they would be embedded in the connection string from the AWS console, no?
