Overview
Amazon Redshift tracks events and retains information about them for a period of several weeks in your
AWS account. For each event, Amazon Redshift reports information such as the date the event occurred,
a description, the event source (for example, a cluster, a parameter group, or a snapshot), and the source
ID.
You can use the Amazon Redshift console, the Amazon Redshift API, or the AWS SDKs to obtain event
information. You can obtain a list of all events, or you can apply filters—such as event duration or start
and end date—to obtain events information for a specific period. You can also obtain events that were
generated by a specific source type, such as cluster events or parameter group events.
Viewing Events Using the Console
You can view events in the Amazon Redshift console by click on Events on the left navigation. In the list
of events you can filter the results using the Source Type filter or a custom Filter that filters for text in
all fields of the list. For example, if you search for "12 Dec 2012" you will match Date fields that contain
this value.
