I had no idea people rely on S3 beyond dumb storage. It almost feels like people are trying to build out a distributed OLAP database in the reverse direction.
1. SELECT ... INTO OUTFILE S3
2. glue jobs to partition by some columns reporting uses
3. query with athena
4. ???
5. profit (celebrate reduced cost)
This thing costs couple $ a month for ~500gb of data. Snowflake wanted crazy amounts of money for the same thing.
