Amazon Athena is an ETL-like cloud service launched in November 2016 which allows serverless querying of AWS S3 content[2] using Presto with ANSI SQL support.[3]
Amazon Athena supports various data formats, such as CSV, TSV, and JSON, as well as open source columnar formats like Snappy and compressed formats like Zlib, LZO, and gzip.[4][5]
The release of Athena can be seen as filling a gap in the AWS cloud offering, particularly in relation to Google BigQuery, which was released in 2011.[6] While BigQuery and Athena leverage different underlying technologies (Dremel[7] and Presto[8]), they serve a similar purpose as serverless analytic services. It was not until Athena's release that AWS had a comparable product offering.
