Is it possible to run Trino on top of pure AWS S3 without any other additional engine? In the Trino connectors there is no S3, but in the docs it is mentioned it could be run over S3 or e.g. Hive. So do I need some layer over S3 such as Hadoop/Hive or something like that, or it is possible to use Trino just with S3 as is?

CodePudding user response：

Trino can use S3 as a storage mechanism through the Hive connector. But S3 itself is only for object (basically files) storage - there is not a server type component. You must have a server process running somewhere as either a Linux process or a Docker image.
