Deploying 'Official' Athena Connectors

The Amazon Athena team maintains and updates a set of connectors that can 1-Click deployed via Serverless Application Repository. Search for applications published with an Author of Amazon Athena Federation. This author name is reserved exclusively for Amazon Athena. When you see it, you can rest assured that the application was written, tested, and validated by the Amazon Athena team before being made available.

Below are links to Athena's Official Connectors in Severless Application Repository.

You can of course choose to build and deploy your own copy of these connectors from source by getting a copy of the code in this repository and then using our Connector Publish Tool to create your own Serverless Application Repository package.

Many connectors in this repository require access to the following AWS services in order to function correctly, please read the documentation for the connector you are deploying and then ensure you've configured your VPC accordingly.

  1. Network connectivity to S3.
  2. Network connectivity to Athena (for checking query status / preventing overscan).
  3. Network connectivity to AWS Secrets Manager (if you are using it to store secrets for your connector).
  4. Network connectivity to AWS Glue DataCatalog (if your connector uses Glue for supplemental or primary metadata).
