Looker (JDBC)
Interact Advanced Analytics uses the AWS Data Lake technologies to power the data querying, analysis, and retrieval. To connect Looker to Interact's Advanced Analytics Solution, you will need:
- Looker
- AWS Athena JDBC Driver
The setup largely mimics the steps outlined in the JDBC Connectivity page, as this covers the in-depth JDBC configuration steps.
The Looker AWS Athena setup is documented in quite a lot of detail on this page.
https://docs.looker.com/setup-and-management/database-config/amazon-athena
The only thing which is not covered in the Looker AWS Athena documentation is setting the Workgroup
setting which is a requirement for Interact Advanced Analytics.
Full documentation on the AWS Athena JDBC Configuration can be found here (including the Workgroup
setting.)

Workgroup specifically can be found on page 104.
