Dude if there is a winner for crappiest aws app it'd be "by far" Alexa for Business. Never heard of it? Exactly

I use Athena from time to time, what doesn’t work for you and what are the alternatives? I’ll just put some files in S3 and then point Athena to those. I don’t want to create an emr cluster or write scripts to load data into a local SQLite database.
