Metabase Athena Driver Versions Save

Metabase v0.35 includes a new query processor that improves the performance of queries by not requiring all data to be stored in memory. This release updates the Athena driver to be compatible with v0.35.

There are also a couple other minor changes:

• Upgrades the Athena driver to 2.0.9 - Here are full release notes, but of particular note is that the driver no longer throws an exception when partitionkeys parameter is missing from the table definition.
• You'll see a new option when connecting to Athena where you can input semicolon-delimited options from the Athena JDBC Driver Installation and Configuration Guide.

🙏 Thanks to folks that use this driver!

💁‍♂️ Please note: This driver is only compatible with Metabase v0.35.0 and up. Releases prior to that should use v0.3.0.

Install it by downloading athena.metabase-driver.jar to a plugins/ folder wherever you are running Metabase from. Happy queries!

This is a release candidate preview to test the ability to add driver configuration options when setting up the Athena driver.

Metabase 0.34 was released recently with bunch of timezone-related fixes! Unfortunately, it also deprecated a few things requiring re-working the driver a little bit. This release addresses those issues. Thanks to @skuroq and @kiansiong for catching and reporting(!) this. 🙏

On the plus side, the driver now has a basic set of tests! Check out test/metabase/driver/athena_test.clj for more details. 🙌

Please note: This driver is only compatible with Metabase v0.34.0 and up. Releases prior to that should use v0.2.1.
