Exporting Data From Amazon S3 Using the AWS Library

The Vertica library for Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a set of functions and configurable session parameters. These parameters allow you to directly exchange data between Vertica and Amazon S3 storage without any third-party scripts or programs.

To use the AWS library, you must have access to an Amazon S3 storage account.

To load data from S3 in text, delimited, or Parquet format, you can use COPY FROM instead of using this library. See Specifying COPY FROM Options for more information.
