Amazon QuickSight enables cross-account Athena access

Amazon QuickSight now supports cross-account access for Amazon Athena, simplifying data querying across different AWS accounts. This feature allows users to query Athena data residing in other accounts using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) role chaining. Importantly, query costs are billed to the account where the data is stored, providing a clear cost management structure for distributed data analysis and unified insights.
