This is the format for the data model stored as JSON file in Amazon S3 . There are lot of books with lot of chapters and text contents. The requirement is to search a particular text across all books and list the line, chapter, book and the version where the text is found . How can I make S3 queries on nested array JSON file ?

You can use Amazon Athena to query nested JSON data from S3.

Searching for values inside json should be possible. You can find an example here:

WITH dataset AS (
  SELECT * FROM (VALUES
    (JSON '{"name": "Bob Smith", "org": "legal", "projects": ["project1"]}'),
    (JSON '{"name": "Susan Smith", "org": "engineering", "projects": ["project1", "project2", "project3"]}'),
    (JSON '{"name": "Jane Smith", "org": "finance", "projects": ["project1", "project2"]}')
  ) AS t (users)
)
SELECT json_extract_scalar(users, '$.name') AS user
FROM dataset
WHERE json_array_contains(json_extract(users, '$.projects'), 'project2')
