Get started with Athena

Why HAQM Athena?

HAQM Athena is an interactive query service that simplifies data analysis in HAQM S3 using standard SQL. Athena is serverless, so there is no infrastructure to set up or manage, and you only pay for the resources your query needs to run. Use Athena to process logs, perform data analytics, and run interactive queries. Athena automatically scales and completes queries in parallel, so results are fast, even with large datasets and complex queries.

HAQM Athena is accessible in the next generation of HAQM SageMaker

HAQM Athena is available in the next generation of HAQM SageMaker, enabling frictionless SQL processing and Apache Spark workloads. Within HAQM SageMaker Unified Studio, Athena empowers you to query, transform, and analyze data directly from connected sources—like HAQM S3 data lakes—all without managing infrastructure.
