Well, everyone is abuzz with the recently announced S3 Tables that came out of AWS reinvent this year. I’m going to call fools gold on this one right out of the gate. I tried them out, in real life that is, not just some marketing buzz, and it will leave most people, not all, be most, disappointed.
Surprise, surprise.
I wrote a more in-depth article here about the background and infighting between Databricks/Snowflake/AWS and the Lake House Storage Format wars. If you have time read that, but today, here, I just want to show you technically how to use S3 Tables in code.
Call it a technical introduction to S3 Tables.
