ODBC Drivers For Solaris SPARC 64 Bit

We are trying to establish connection to Amazon redshift using the using OBIEE Administartion Tool. We have sucessfully established the connection and we have depoployed the RPD file on the server. Once deployed when we try to access the Amazon redshfit subject area we see OBDC error as we don't have Amazon Redsfit ODBC drivers installed on the OBIEE BI server.
We don't see any drivers information from Amazon for Solaris SPARC 64 bit. We have opened Oracle ticket and Oracle say check with Amazon. We don't know which route to go to solve this issue is any one in the same boat please guide.

"We don't see any drivers information from Amazon for Solaris SPARC 64 bit."
As support says that's an issue with which you have to go to Amazon. It's their product and up to them to priv9de (or not) drivers for it on that platform.

Is there any other route we can overcome this issue. As Amazon also don't have drivers for Solaris SPARC 64 bit. We see some third party companies giving this driver..

Buy it from a 3rd party then

While not directly related to your request, knowing that OAS doesn't have any support for Solaris SPARC, you should also consider the future of your tool more in general.
At some point support for OBIEE will be over (almost 2 years since the first release of OAS 5.5), and at that point you will maybe need to consider either moving to cloud or away from Solaris SPARC. That somehow would also fix your driver issue as drivers for redshift exists for linux and windows.

Check these two support notes which detail exactly the release dates of versions, the available patches and the general supportedness of OBIEE and OAS:
