Amazon S3 Tables are now available in five additional AWS Regions

Amazon S3 Tables are now available in five additional AWS Regions: Europe (Frankfurt), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), Europe (Stockholm), and Asia Pacific (Tokyo). S3 Tables deliver the first cloud object store with built-in Apache Iceberg support, and the easiest way to store tabular data at scale. S3 Tables are specifically optimized for analytics workloads, resulting in up to 3x faster query performance through continual table optimization compared to unmanaged Iceberg tables, and up to 10x higher transactions per second compared to Iceberg tables stored in general purpose S3 buckets. S3 Tables integration with AWS Glue Data Catalog is in preview, allowing you to stream, query, and visualize data using AWS Analytics services such as Amazon Data Firehose, Athena, Redshift, EMR, and QuickSight. Additionally, S3 Tables perform continual table maintenance to automatically expire old snapshots and related data files to reduce storage cost over time. S3 Tables are now generally available in eight [AWS Regions](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/s3-tables-regions-quotas.html).
