+# Analyzing data from Query History export
+
+You can use Query History export to bring Query History data to an external monitoring
+solution for further analysis.
+
+In this recipe, we will show you how to export Query History data to Amazon S3, and then
+analyze it using Cube by reading the data from S3 using DuckDB.
+
+<WarningBox>
+
+This recipe is work-in-progress.
+
+</WarningBox>
+
+## Configuration
+
+Vector configuration for exporting Query History to Amazon S3 and console:
+
+```toml
+[sinks.aws_s3]
+type = "aws_s3"
+inputs = [
+  "query-history"
+]
+bucket = "cube-query-history-export-demo"
+region = "us-east-2"
+compression = "gzip"
+
+[sinks.aws_s3.auth]
+access_key_id = "$CUBE_CLOUD_MONITORING_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"
+secret_access_key = "$CUBE_CLOUD_MONITORING_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"
+
+[sinks.aws_s3.encoding]
+codec = "json"
+
+[sinks.aws_s3.healthcheck]
+enabled = false
+
+
+[sinks.my_console]
+type = "console"
+inputs = [
+  "query-history"
+]
+target = "stdout"
+encoding = { codec = "json" }
+```
+
+Environment variables:
+
+```bash
+CUBE_CLOUD_MONITORING_AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your-access-key-id
+CUBE_CLOUD_MONITORING_AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your-secret-access-key
+
+CUBEJS_DB_DUCKDB_S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your-access-key-id
+CUBEJS_DB_DUCKDB_S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your-secret-access-key
+CUBEJS_DB_DUCKDB_S3_REGION=us-east-2
+```
+
+## Data modeling
+
+Example data model for analyzing data from Query History export that is brought to a
+bucket in Amazon S3:
+
+```yaml

+
+      - name: avg_duration
+        type: number
