Waiting for the file, once we got it, i will try the first approach and monitor the performance trends.

I've never done it personally but you can try using Chat GPT to explain the different steps involved.

Personally I would try the 1st method above and see if it works for before trying the Athena method.

As of now we don't have an option for AWS database.
Thank you, I will research how can we integrate with Athena. Never tried. keep you posted how it goes.
ever tried to integrate with AWS Glue?

I think it'll be fine personally. Otherwise your other option is to have a service backed record with the method mentioned below.

You don't even need to load it in a DB if you can get this setup

aws.amazon.com/.../

Would it be an option to store that data in a database at Amazon and connect that to Appian?

Create a process that runs daily that:

1. Downloads the file from S3 (via Amazon S3 Utilities plugin - Amazon S3 Utilities )

2. Imports the CSV into Database (via Excel tools plugin - Excel Tools )
