Any examples of queries and what this can do? S3 was file storage as far as i thought?

Athena (Presto) supports standard ANSI SQL - you can query data that's stored in S3.

How does that work though, so say my bucket has 10,000 json files in it and I want all of them with the name attributes being like '%john'. Is that possible?
