AWS Glue is a serverless data integration service that can crawl, catalog, and prepare data for analysis. AWS Glue can automatically discover the schema and partitioning of the data stored in Apache Parquet format in S3, and create a table in the AWS Glue Data Catalog. Amazon Athena is a serverless interactive query service that can run SQL queries directly on data in S3, without requiring any data loading or transformation. Athena can use the table metadata from the AWS Glue Data Catalog to query the data in S3. By using AWS Glue and Athena, you can analyze the log files in S3 most cost-effectively, as you only pay for the resources consumed by the crawler and the queries, and you do not need to provision or manage any servers or clusters.
