AWS Athena - Connect from Lambda

Question

connecting/Running query in an aws athena via lambda function is working fine , but when i connect using lambda with vpc, it gives timeout error. please suggest a solution to resolve this

Answer 1

Since your function is "in" a VPC, there are two options to enable access to Athena:

• Place your function in private su.net (public will not work), and setup NAT gateway in a public su.net with correct route tables. This way, your function will connect to Athena using NAT and subsequently, the inte.net.
• Create a VPC interface endpoint for Athena in your VPC. This does not require inte.net access, nor NAT. Subsequently you can privately connect to Athena without leaving AWS.
