Description
Hi there, I maintain redshift_connector.
I noticed https://github.com/plotly/graphing-library-docs/blob/master/_posts/python-v3/databases/redshift.ipynb uses psycopg2. redshift_connector is mentioned here on the plotly website, but this example uses psycopg2. Could you folks consider updating this to use redshift_connector?
redshift_connector supports integration with SQLAlchemy via the Redshift specific SQLAlchemy dialect (sqlalchemy-redshift) as well as a bunch of Redshift specific features such as IAM and Identity provider based authentication as well as support for Redshift native datatypes.

Research direction
Open _posts/python-v3/databases/redshift.ipynb and inspect the current psycopg2 example first. Update the documented connection example to use redshift_connector, including the relevant Redshift-specific integration described in the issue. Done means the notebook no longer relies on psycopg2 and the example remains valid documentation.
