I have done this with AWS Athena. At the end of the day a kalman filter is just a number of multiplications and divisions.

My version would calculate one step at a time so it is a bit simplified (since that was a requirement, processing one measurement of incoming data daily). And also only in one dimension (here is two).

For the offline version (calculating many steps in a chunk), i'd imagine i'd use the array functions in Athena. But it may very well be possible to recreate using window functions. The state is just more column/columns after all.
