Hello
I am trying to copy SQL Server table with varchar(max) to Amazon Redshift. There is no direct connection, I have to save data to file and load data from the file.
The maximum length for VARCHAR in Redshift is 65535 bytes
SELECT LEFT(CAST('ABC' AS VARCHAR(MAX)), 65535) AS Col;
sqlcmd -i "select.sql" -o "out.txt"
Msg 131, Level 15, State 2, Server XYZ, Line 4
The size (65535) given to the column 'x' exceeds the maximum allowed for any data type (8000).
