Amazon Athena Description

Amazon Athena allows you to easily analyze data in Amazon S3 with standard SQL. Athena is serverless so there is no infrastructure to maintain and you only pay for the queries you run.

Athena is simple to use. Simply point to your data in Amazon S3 and define the schema. Then, you can query standard SQL. Most results are delivered in a matter of seconds. Athena makes it easy to prepare your data for analysis without the need for complicated ETL jobs. Anyone with SQL skills can quickly analyze large-scale data sets.

Athena integrates with AWS Glue Data Catalog out-of-the box. This allows you to create a unified metadata repositorie across multiple services, crawl data sources and discover schemas. You can also populate your Catalog by adding new and modified partition and table definitions. Schema versioning is possible.
