Can I delete data (rows in tables) from Athena?

Question

Is it possible to delete data stored in S3 through an Athena query? I have some rows I have to delete from a couple of tables (they point to separate buckets in S3).

Answer 1

Use AWS Glue for that. Load your data, delete what you need to delete, save the data back.

Now you can also delete files from s3 and merge data: https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/whats-new/2020/01/aws-glue-adds-new-transforms-apache-spark-applications-datasets-amazon-s3/
