Viewing Amazon S3 Storage Lens metrics using a data export

Amazon S3 Storage Lens metrics are generated daily in CSV or Apache Parquet-formatted metrics export files and placed in an S3 general purpose bucket in your account. From there, you can ingest the metrics export into the analytics tools of your choice, such as Amazon Quick Suite and Amazon Athena, where you can analyze storage usage and activity trends. You can also send daily metric exports to an AWS-managed S3 table bucket for immediate querying, using AWS analytics services or third-party tools.
