Explanation

Amazon Redshift Serverless is ideal for this scenario as it provides a fully managed, serverless data warehouse solution with high performance for analytics queries. Key reasons why it meets the requirements with the least operational overhead: Serverless Configuration: Redshift Serverless automatically scales capacity based on query demand, making it well-suited for unpredictable spikes in usage without requiring manual Managed Storage (RMS): Loading data into Amazon Redshift managed storage provides optimized storage for analytics and integrates with Amazon QuickSight for fast query performance in direct query mode. Cost-Effective and Low Management: Since the data warehouse is only actively used for a few hours daily, Redshift Serverless provides a cost- effective option by scaling resources dynamically, which eliminates the need to manage and pay for idle infrastructure.
