A healthcare company uses AWS data and analytics tools to collect, ingest, and store electronic health record (EHR) data about its patients. The raw EHR data is stored in Amazon S3 in JSON format partitioned by hour, day, and year and is updated every hour. The company wants to maintain the data catalog and metadata in an AWS Glue Data Catalog to be able to access the data using Amazon Athena or Amazon Redshift Spectrum for analytics. When defining tables in the Data Catalog, the company has the following requirements: ✑ Choose the catalog table name and do not rely on the catalog table naming algorithm. ✑ Keep the table updated with new partitions loaded in the respective S3 bucket prefixes. Which solution meets these requirements with minimal effort?
