Thanks everyone for your feedback – We have just released a new Amazon Redshift connector with the Power BI Desktop July Update! This connector is currently in Preview and it allows users to Import data or create a DirectQuery report based on Amazon Redshift data. In future releases, this connector will also be supported in Power BI Service and Gateway for Refresh purposes. Stay tuned! Please take a look at the Update Announcement blog (https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-july-feature-summary/) and to this documentation article for more details: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/documentation/powerbi-desktop-connect-redshift/

'@Miguel Llopis please update us on your comment that in which particular month, we would be able to use Amazon redshift gateway for refresh purpose. Thanks!

RE: Add AWS Redshift data source

Agree with needing Redshift connectivity for PowerBI service for it to be a real contender. Otherwise this feels like a way to create migration pressure away from AWS to Azure to make PowerBI viable. Maybe I'll try QuickSight instead?

If there's any way to make sure this connector works for the on-prem connectivity of forthcoming other cloud service purposes too, that'd be great. (Read: Dynamics 365)

RE: Add AWS Redshift data source

Great to hear it is being worked on. How will this work from the Power BI service? Will Redshift be a Live Connect data source?
