class AthenaArrowDialect(AthenaDialect):
"""SQLAlchemy dialect for Amazon Athena with Apache Arrow result format.
This dialect extends AthenaDialect to use ArrowCursor, which returns
query results as Apache Arrow Tables. Arrow format provides efficient
columnar data representation, making it ideal for analytical workloads
and integration with data science tools.
Connection URL Format:
``awsathena+arrow://{access_key}:{secret_key}@athena.{region}.amazonaws.com/{schema}``
Query Parameters:
In addition to the base dialect parameters:
- unload: If "true", use UNLOAD for Parquet output (better performance
for large datasets)
Example:
>>> from sqlalchemy import create_engine
>>> engine = create_engine(
... "awsathena+arrow://:@athena.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/default"
... "?s3_staging_dir=s3://my-bucket/athena-results/"
... "&unload=true"
... )

:class:`~pyathena.arrow.cursor.ArrowCursor`: The underlying cursor
implementation.
:class:`~pyathena.sqlalchemy.base.AthenaDialect`: Base dialect class.
