SSM Parameter Store

S3
ORC data files are stored in an S3 bucket specified in the SSM Param Store. The files are stored in such a way to allow AWS Glue and Athena to "crawl" the data and then query the resulting tables.
A Twitter project and application must be configured for this project. API/Consumer keys are stored in the AWS SSM Param Store. tndx uses Twitter's OAuth 2.0 services.
