Explanation

Amazon QuickSight is the only option that directly addresses all three requirements: native connectors for Salesforce, MySQL, and Amazon S3 out of the box; built-in mobile dashboard support for iOS and Android; and minimal coding or infrastructure management. It is a fully managed BI service specifically designed for this use case. Option A (Athena federated queries) and Option C (Redshift federated queries) are query engines, not dashboard tools - they would still require a separate visualization layer and additional setup. Option B (Lake Formation) is a governance and migration tool, not a dashboard product. Both A and C would require significant additional work to produce mobile dashboards, violating the least-customization requirement.
