# How to Integrate Amazon Redshift with Daton

### Prerequisites

Before we get started, make sure you have:

* An AWS and Daton account
* Database name, Hostname, and Password
* Port Number (usually `5439`)

### Integrate your Amazon Redshift Database with Daton

1. [Log in](https://daton.sarasanalytics.com/login) to your existing Daton account and search for Amazon Redshift in the list of Connectors, then click **Configure**.
2.  Enter the following details and click **Authenticate**:&#x20;

    * Integration Name&#x20;
    * Replication Frequency&#x20;
    * Replication Start Date&#x20;

    **Note** that the Integration Name will be used to create the integration tables and cannot be modified later.
3.  **Select** your Amazon Redshift Database Schema(s) data to be replicated. For the same, provide the following Redshift credentials and click **Next.**&#x20;

    * Database Host Name
    * Port Number
    * Database User Name
    * Database User Password
    * Database Name

    You can also secure your authentication by SSH tunneling.&#x20;

4.  Post Database Authentication, you will be prompted to choose schemas from the list. **Select** the desired Schemas and click **Next.** &#x20;

5.  **Select** all the Tables as per requirement and **Configure** the schema that you wish to create in the destination before clicking the **Next** button.&#x20;

    Note:&#x20;

    * You will have to check at least one Table from each of the previously selected Schemas to proceed further.&#x20;
    * You can also customize the replication frequency and replication start date of each desired table separately. You may find this functionality under the advanced settings of every selected table.
    *   Select all the Columns you require for each table and **Submit** the integration. \

        It's recommended to select a replication field for each of the tables. Selecting **'None'** will lead to full table replication. Learn more about [Replication Fields](../../../../platform/features/data/data-replication-in-daton/replication-fields) here.

        **Note** that you will be prompted to select the destination for your Database.
6. Select the destination for your source and click **Confirm**. An integration successful message will be displayed.

## Important Note

* Integrations would begin in the Pending state and change to the Active state once the first job successfully loaded data into the configured warehouse.&#x20;
* Users can check job status and process logs from the integration details page by clicking on the integration name in the active list.&#x20;
* Users can Re-Authenticate, Edit, Clone, Pause, or Delete the integration at any moment by clicking on settings. You can also adjust the frequency and history of the integration.&#x20;
* On the Sources page, click Integration to access each table in your integration. The page also shows the state of each table, the last replicated time, and Reload access buttons.&#x20;
