As our applications are hosted on AWS service, Redshift is the best option for us. Also, it provide a near to real-time performance on limited datasets and less complex queries. High availability is the major concern for any growing business and AWS is the best option for this. Compared to other services like Google and Azure, this one has limited functionality but great support by the AWS customer service.
