Amazon S3 Tables expand availability to the AWS Middle East (UAE) Region, enabling customers to store tabular data at scale.
S3 Tables deliver the first cloud object store with built-in Apache Iceberg support. They 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.
You can use S3 Tables with AWS analytics services through the integration with Amazon SageMaker Lakehouse, as well as Apache Iceberg-compatible open source engines like Apache Spark and Apache Flink. 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 fifteen [AWS Regions](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/userguide/s3-tables-regions-quotas.html). For pricing details, visit the [S3 pricing page](https://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/).
