Amazon S3 Tables Now Handles All Apache Iceberg V3 Data Types

Amazon S3 Tables just got a serious upgrade with full Apache Iceberg V3 support, meaning you can now natively store geospatial coordinates, nanosecond-precision timestamps, and set column defaults without any string encoding hacks. This is a game-changer for fleet tracking, asset mapping, and financial workloads that need precise location and timing data—plus automatic table maintenance keeps everything performant as your data grows.
