Don't let this gap widen

Why this program matters

  • Failing to master Amazon Athena exposes your business to major cost overruns.

  • According to Gartner, 65% of cloud organizations lose more than 30% of their data budget to inefficient queries.

  • This gap slows real-time data exploitation and delays strategic decisions.

  • Competitors who already optimize their analyses gain agility and profitability.

  • Without these skills, the risks of technological lag and market share loss increase sharply.

  • Act now to secure your competitive advantage.

Program

Module 1Theme: Amazon Athena Fundamentals and Configuration (AWS Console, S3, Glue Catalog)

Participants explore Amazon Athena in depth during this first day. They configure tables on S3, use the Glue Data Catalog, and execute complex SQL queries. Hands-on exercises allow exploration of Parquet and ORC formats, analysis of real datasets, and measurement of initial performance gains. Deliverables include an optimized base schema and an initial cost report.

Module 2Theme: Advanced Amazon Athena Optimization (Partitioning, Indexing, CTAS)

This day focuses on optimization techniques with Amazon Athena. Learners implement intelligent partitioning, indexes, and CTAS queries to reduce scans. Real enterprise cases illustrate cost reductions of up to 70%. Practical workshops result in a high-performance transformation pipeline and quantified infrastructure recommendations.

Module 3Theme: Amazon Athena Integrations and Security (Lambda, QuickSight, IAM)

Experts integrate Amazon Athena with Lambda, Step Functions, and QuickSight. They configure fine-grained IAM policies, enable encryption, and audit access. Real data governance scenarios are addressed through practical exercises. Participants deliver a secure dashboard and an automated reporting architecture ready for enterprise deployment.

Module 4Theme: Advanced Amazon Athena Projects and Best Practices (Performance Tuning, Monitoring)

The final day is dedicated to expert projects with Amazon Athena. Learners optimize critical workloads, implement monitoring with CloudWatch, and apply production best practices. A complete enterprise case is solved collectively. Final deliverables include a comprehensive optimization report and a deployment plan certifying acquired skills.

Our method

Training quality, guaranteed at every step

Before, during, after: we frame the brief, introduce the trainer, tailor the content and measure impact. You stay in control from kickoff to wrap-up.

Step 1

Rigorous trainer selection

Each trainer is validated on three criteria: hands-on field expertise, proven pedagogy and alignment with your industry.

  • Triple validation: technical, pedagogical, sectoral.
  • Minimum rating 4.8/5 over the last 12 sessions.
Step 2

You meet the trainer beforehand

30-minute video call between you and the selected trainer to validate the fit, adjust content and clear any final doubts.

  • Live briefing on goals and team context.
  • Veto right — we swap the trainer for free if needed.
Step 3

Content tailored to your context

No recycled slides. The syllabus is reworked from your real cases: tools, constraints, vocabulary, ongoing projects.

  • Hands-on cases drawn from your stack and projects.
  • Program co-written then validated by your team.
Step 4

Continuous quality follow-up

Live evaluations, 30/90/180-day check-ins and a consolidation plan. If the impact misses the mark, we rework it.

  • NPS, knowledge quizzes and skills self-assessment.
  • Satisfaction guarantee: fully satisfied or free rework.

A simple promise: you don't pay to discover the trainer on day one. Everything is validated upfront, by you.
