Load data from Amazon Athena
This article explains how to connect to Amazon Athena and load data into Exasol.
Download JDBC driver
Download the latest Amazon Athena JDBC driver from the Connect to Athena with JDBC page on the Amazon Athena website.
If you want to use JDBC 2.x, download the JDBC 2.x driver with AWS SDK.
Add JDBC driver
Create a configuration file called settings.cfg
with the following settings:
DRIVERNAME=Athena
PREFIX=jdbc:awsathena:
FETCHSIZE=100000
INSERTSIZE=-1
NOSECURITY=YES
To know how to upload the JDBC driver and the configuration file to BucketFS, see Add JDBC Driver.
