Resolution

Complete the following steps:

  1. Check your recent Athena queries to find the query that Quick Suite generated.
  2. Check the query's runtime duration before it fails.
  3. If the runtime is close to the maximum DML query timeout quota in minutes, then submit a service quota increase request.

Take the following actions:
