Amazon Redshift announces enhanced system logs with consistent durability
Amazon Redshift customers use the system table/views (STL/SVL) to get insight into query executions for their performance and auditing needs. These system table/views are powered by system logs and generated by Amazon Redshift cluster. Amazon Redshift enhances the system log durability and now allows the users to fetch up to seven days of system log data irrespective of instance type, cluster size and workload on the cluster. The system logs are now also persisted across the pause and resume of your cluster.
