# Amazon Redshift JavaScript SDK v3 code examples

Amazon Redshift is a fully managed, petabyte-scale data warehouse service in the cloud. You can start with just a few hundred gigabytes of data and scale to a petabyte or more. This enables you to use your data to acquire new insights for your business and customers.

## Code examples

This is a workspace where you can find the following AWS SDK for JavaScript version 3 (v3) Amazon Redshift examples.

- [Create Redshift cluster](src/redshift-create-cluster.js)
- [Delete a Redshift cluster](src/redshift-delete-cluster.js)
- [Describe Redshift clusters](src/redshift-describe-clusters.js)
- [Modify a Redshift cluster](src/redshift-modify-cluster.js)
