sendgrid-to-redshift v1.0.1

logs.classdojo.com

logs.classdojo.com is where web frontend logs are sent. To cheapen development costs, it was tacked onto an existing service called sendgrid-to-redshift, so it has some legacy sendgrid webhook functionality.

Sendgrid context

We want to get information about our email performance out of Sendgrid. Sendgrid sends the information to a webhook (a load balancer in front of two ec2 instances) which then streams it to the redshift analytics cluster.
