Redshift is based on ParAccel, not on Postgres. ParAccel uses APIs similar to Postgres due to historical reasons, but not the technology.

For a basic overview: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paraccel

As for the rest of the article, it feels like a basic Data Warehousing 101 re-discovered. It should have been titled "Analytics: Back To The Future" :-)
