I wish he would talk about how they protect one customer from running a query that brings down the full stack. When we permitted Tableau to start talking to Redshift, we frequently encountered "Oh crap, Peter is running that query and and that's why everything is at a stand-still..."

You can set up Workload Management[1] to restrict the amount of compute / query_slots each query/user can use. It splits the memory/compute into slices, and queries can use multiple slices, so you can get some fine-grained control, but it takes a bunch of work.
