This tutorial used a data source in Amazon S3 in CSV format. For information about using Athena with AWS Glue, see [Use AWS Glue Data Catalog to connect to your data](data-sources-glue.md). You can also connect Athena to a variety of data sources by using ODBC and JDBC drivers, external Hive metastores, and Athena data source connectors. For more information, see [Connect to data sources](work-with-data-stores.md).
