A marketing firm needs to analyze extensive click-stream logs that are already stored in Amazon S3. The team wants to run quick, ad-hoc SQL queries directly against the data without first loading or transforming it into another system. Which AWS service should they use?
Amazon Athena is designed for interactive, ad-hoc analysis of data stored in Amazon S3. It is serverless, supports standard SQL, and requires no data loading or transformation. Amazon Redshift is a data-warehouse service that typically involves loading data or defining external tables. AWS Glue focuses on data preparation and ETL workflows, and Amazon QuickSight provides dashboards and visualizations rather than direct ad-hoc querying of raw data.
