Normal queries running slower than Redshift Spectrum queries

0 votes

I am using Redshift Spectrum for some queries & I have some queries running without Spectrum. I notice that some queries accessing data in my cluster are running slower than my Redshift Spectrum queries. Why is that?

Amazon Redshift queries are run on your cluster resources against local disk. Redshift Spectrum queries run using per-query scale-out resources against data in S3. For most queries, local disk will be faster, but for queries that scan a lot of data and do minimal compute processing, we can apply a lot of Redshift Spectrum workers and complete them quickly.

Hope this helped.
