Unable to connect to Amazon Athena on Linux host OS.
If you download and use the JDBC Driver without SDK you will not be able to connect successfully.
There are multiple errors, but you will most likely encounter:
'com.tableausoftware.jdbc.SQLExceptionWithDriverInfo: [Simba][AthenaJDBC](100211) Missing credentials error: Either UID/PWD or AwsCredentialsProviderClass must be provided.'
Currently, it is required to use the JDBC Driver with SDK available on the Amazon AWS Help Documentation. (Link below).
Download and use the JDBC Driver with SDK.
