Shopee is an e-commerce platform that companies use for selling their brand items. Ecommerce websites generate data from inventory, marketing, payment gateways, and CRMs. Thus, enterprises want to learn more about their data. They also want to learn about the demand and supply trends. This learning process will help them to maximize their revenue, reduce losses and optimize business performance. Above all, it will provide a smooth shopping experience to customers. Thus, companies must consolidate the Shopee data to Amazon Redshift. Redshift is a powerful data warehouse. Data consolidation will help a company’s manager get a complete view of their data without any hassle of writing code. Also, this method will help analysts get different departments’ data in one place to create reports. Furthermore, this article will explain two different approaches to replicating your data. Read on to find out the most suitable approach for your business.

 

Why integrate Shopee to Amazon Redshift

Shopee website helps e-commerce companies in South East Asian countries sell their products. This website will use different logistic channels, inventory management systems, marketing platforms, payment gateways, and target customers in each region. A firm can easily calculate the total profit by:

Profits/Losses = Sales – Expenses

The companies can accumulate sales data from essential sources like CRMs, sales databases, and e-commerce sites. Similarly, one can obtain expense data from accounting or payment software, logistic channels, inventory management tools, and ad platforms. However, consolidating data manually from various software is a challenging task that could lead to time lag. Also, it will delay the calculation and data analysis process, which may produce inaccurate results. The data integration consolidates all the data to the data warehouse. Hence, a manager can have a complete view of a company’s data. And need not face the inconvenience of collecting data from various teams. It will accelerate the process of decision-making. Thus, without writing any code, you can simplify the data transfer process by loading all related data in a data warehouse like Redshift using an ETL tool. Daton, a robust ETL tool, effectively and automatically gets data from Shopee into Amazon Redshift.
