概要

What is Amazon Athena MCP Server by CData?

This read-only MCP server allows LLMs like Claude Desktop to query live Amazon Athena data using natural language, no SQL required. It wraps the CData JDBC Driver for Amazon Athena, exposing the data as relational SQL models through a simple MCP interface.

How to use Amazon Athena MCP Server by CData?

Clone the repository and build with mvn clean install. Download and license the CData JDBC Driver for Amazon Athena. Use the driver’s Connection String utility to generate a JDBC URL, then create a .prp file with properties like Prefix, ServerName, DriverPath, and JdbcUrl. Add the server to your claude_desktop_config.json using the generated jar and .prp file. Fully quit and reopen Claude Desktop for the server to appear.

FAQ from Amazon Athena MCP Server by CData

What does this server do?

It allows LLMs to query Amazon Athena data in real time using natural language, without writing SQL. The server is read‑only; for full CRUD capabilities, use CData’s beta MCP Server for Amazon Athena.

What are the prerequisites?

Java (to run the JAR), Maven (to build), the CData JDBC Driver for Amazon Athena, and a valid license for that driver (a trial is available). The driver must be installed and licensed on the same machine as the MCP server.

How do I connect to Amazon Athena?

Use the driver’s Connection String utility to build a JDBC URL (e.g., jdbc:amazonathena:InitiateOAuth=GETANDREFRESH) and save it in a .prp file. Configure the server in Claude Desktop using the path to the JAR and that .prp file.

Why is the server not showing up in Claude Desktop?

Ensure you have fully quit Claude Desktop (use Task Manager on Windows, Activity Monitor on Mac) and reopened it. Also verify that the claude_desktop_config.json is in the correct directory and contains the proper paths.
