Access a Presto Database with Python and SQLAlchemy

Here's a neutral and interesting summary of the text in one paragraph: The author, Miguel Grinberg, shares his experience with accessing a Presto database using Python and SQLAlchemy. He explains how he set up a connection to his Presto cluster by creating an engine instance, which includes parameters such as username, password, hostname, port, catalog, schema, and protocol. The author then demonstrates how to access specific tables in the Presto database using both manual table definitions and table reflection, which can be more efficient but may have issues with certain column types. Finally, he shows how to integrate the SQLAlchemy ORM to query the Presto database using a declarative base and model class, making it easier to work with the data.
