Amazon Athena is a cloud-based service that enables you to run SQL queries on data stored in Amazon S3 without the need to set up any infrastructure. It is a serverless, pay-per-query service that makes it easy to analyze large amounts of data.

  • Start Query (Enrichment) - Start a query execution.
  • Get Query Execution (Enrichment) - Returns the details of a single query execution or a list of up to 50 query executions.
  • Get Query Results (Enrichment) - Streams the results of a single query execution specified by the Query Execution ID.
  • Cancel Query (Enrichment) - Stops a query execution.
  • List Databases (Enrichment) - Lists the databases in the specified data catalog.
  • List Workgroups (Enrichment) - Lists available workgroups for the account.
  • List Table Metadata (Enrichment) - Lists the metadata for the tables in the specified data catalog database.
