Encryption with Amazon Redshift
You can use encryption
when you perform bulk loading or bulk unloading between Amazon Redshift
and SAS. Here is how to do this.
- Assign a user-friendly name to an encryption key by using PROC S3.
Note: Only IAM:KMS keys are
supported for SAS/ACCESS Interface to Amazon Redshift.
- Enable
bulk loading with the BULKLOAD= data
set option, or enable
bulk unloading with the BULKUNLOAD=
LIBNAME option or BULKUNLOAD= data set option.
- Specify
the BL_ENCKEY= LIBNAME option or BL_ENCKEY= data set option to indicate that data files should be encrypted. The value for BL_ENCKEY= is the user-friendly name that
you assigned to an encryption key by using PROC S3.
- Specify any additional
bulk-load options. For more information, see Bulk Loading and Bulk Unloading with Amazon Redshift.
