I copied an example from the AWS blog post and adapted to our use-case. I did never work with it, but there is Athena that allows to query S3 in something like SQL. I think there _might_ be some cases were S3 is a useful database, as one can use pre-signed URLs to let any client write to the database (S3). That‘s something I‘m not sure how to set up with a classic database and without any API in between. IMHO, I think it‘s all about the same functionality with a simpler architecture.
