__SQL__ (pronounced 'S-Q-L' or 'sequel') is a programming language used to access and manipulate databases. There are several versions of SQL that share a common framework but can have different syntax and functionality. The version of SQL used by [Amazon Athena](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/athena/latest/ug/what-is.html) is based on [Presto 0.217](https://prestodb.io/docs/0.217/index.html).

The link to the presto docs is broken, and the information here (and in a couple of other places) is out of date. Athena is actually based on Trino, which is a fork of Presto, and as of Athena Engine 3 it contains features from the latest Trino version that aren't included in Presto. This wasn't previously an issue as the two previously broadly aligned (and confusingly Trino used to be called PrestoSQL), but for accuracy the Trino docs should be used instead.
