This pattern walks you through the steps for migrating a Teradata database, used as a data warehouse in an on-premises data center, to an Amazon Redshift database. The pattern uses AWS Schema Conversion Tool (AWS SCT) data extraction agents. An agent is an external program that is integrated with AWS SCT but performs data transformation elsewhere and interacts with other AWS services on your behalf.
