Replicate Amazon SP-API to Amazon Redshift in minute

Do you need an easy method to transfer your data from Amazon SP-API to Amazon Redshift? Here is a quick and simple solution to migrate data using an ETL tool Daton

eCommerce is a competitive zone as every company is venturing to start selling on the online platform. These companies get to sell their products anywhere on an e-commerce platform or a well-established marketplace. An e-commerce marketplace like Amazon facilitates the selling process by providing a wide range of solutions for sellers. However, online selling needs several additional tools like accounting or inventory management systems, payment tools. Thus, sellers must consolidate data from Amazon and other tools for a comprehensive view. The data insights enable sellers to track issues, trace any matters back through the workflow to the data source, and improve the operation of the various team.

 

Why integrate Amazon SP-API to Amazon Redshift?

Amazon sellers are heavily reliant on analysts for regular reports from Amazon. For example, a channel analyst usually applies such reports from Amazon to develop channel performance reports for the Team Leaders. However, depending on manual reporting can lead to an underperforming channel. Thus, one can enhance a company’s overall performance if they spend more time improving business performance. Hence, manual reporting doesn’t leave much time for planning on improving business performance. Amazon, however, recognizes this issue and has prepared a quick way for businesses to access their data easily. Amazon SP API provides a set of APIS that lets developers extract easily from Amazon. This method will enable developers to submit reports on behalf of the sellers by leveraging code.

Amazon sellers can calculate the profit/loss.

Profit/loss=(sales data from seller central – advertising expenses incurred in Amazon Ads).

Therefore, sellers would need Amazon Advertising Reports and Sales data from Amazon seller central platform to perform the above estimate. Moreover, the data must be processed in excel or similar software to gain the results. Most importantly, for global sellers, analysts manually create reports daily on all channels for each country. The result of manual work is that analysis scarcely happens, restricting how fast sellers can answer with revised pricing, discounts, pausing campaigns that are not working, and others. Analysts can automate crucial reporting tasks and free up their time for in-depth data analysis by automating data extraction from Amazon SP-API to Snowflake. Insights from analysts facilitate decision-makers to assess the result of their decision but also assists them in making better decisions.
