AWS integrates Nova models with Athena for plain English data queries

AWS now enables querying S3 datasets using plain English via Amazon Nova models integrated with Athena. This democratizes data access for non-technical users. Voice-enabled Nova Sonic adds hands-free interaction.

Amazon Web Services rolled out integration of its Amazon Nova family of foundation models with Amazon Athena to allow users to query S3-based datasets using natural language.

Through Amazon Bedrock, the system translates everyday questions like “What was Q2 sales?” into SQL, making sophisticated data analytics accessible to non-technical users. Furthermore, Nova Sonic voice capabilities were introduced for hands-free interactions.

This innovation aims to democratize data access across organizations by lowering barriers to insight generation while balancing productivity with accuracy and security considerations.
