Connecting to Redshift from Azure Analysis Services

Gilbert Quevauvilliers shows how we can connect to Amazon Redshift from Azure Analysis Services:

I am busy working with a customer and had a challenge when using Azure Analysis Services to connect to Amazon Redshift via an ODBC connection.

The first issue that I encountered was the following error: OLE DB or ODBC error: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application; AWS PROD. This lead me to a few websites and the one that got me to my solution was Tabular: Error while using ODBC data source for Importing Data

Below are the steps on how I installed, configured and got the connection and refresh working.

Read on for those steps.
