Amazon Athena
The Hasura Amazon Athena connector is currently available in beta
for all Hasura Cloud offerings and for Hasura
Enterprise Edition customers. Once the Athena connector is generally available (GA), it will be available only for
Hasura Cloud Enterprise and Enterprise Edition customers.
At this time, Athena access is only available on AWS Regions.
Introduction
Hasura allows connecting to an Amazon Athena service to build a GraphQL API based on the schema of the service.
- Hasura GraphQL Engine
v2.15.0
onwards - Amazon Athena
Get Started
To try Hasura with Amazon Athena, you'll need your own new or existing Amazon Athena instance.
Here are 2 ways you can get started with Hasura and Amazon Athena:
- Hasura Cloud: You'll need to be able to access your Amazon Athena instance service from Hasura Cloud.
- Docker: Run Hasura with Docker and then connect your Amazon Athena instance to Hasura.
Supported features
Currently, Hasura supports read-only queries, relationships, and permissions on Amazon Athena.
Managing data with the Hasura Console
The Hasura Console is a web UI that allows you to manage your data and metadata. It is available at
http://localhost:8080/console
when you run Hasura locally, or from your project's Console endpoint when you use
Hasura Cloud.
The data-management features (such as creating tables) are available in the Data
tab. You can access your GraphQL API
in the API
tab and interact with it using the GraphiQL interface.
We recommend using your preferred Amazon Athena client instead. The Hasura Console is designed to be a tool for managing your GraphQL API, and not a full-fledged database management tool.
