Amazon S3 Tables add Apache Iceberg REST Catalog APIs

Amazon S3 Tables now offer table management APIs that are compatible with the Apache Iceberg REST Catalog standard, enabling any Iceberg-compatible application to easily create, update, list, and delete tables in an S3 table bucket. These new table management APIs, that map directly to S3 Tables operations, make it easier for you to get started with S3 Tables if you have a custom catalog implementation, need only basic read and write access to tabular data in a single S3 table bucket, or use an APN partner-provided catalog. For unified data management across all of your tabular data, data governance, and fine-grained access controls, you can use S3 Tables with SageMaker Lakehouse. The new table management APIs are available in all [AWS Regions](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/s3-tables-regions-quotas.html) where S3 Tables are available, at no additional cost.
