AWS Clean Rooms announces support for remote Apache Iceberg REST catalogs

AWS Clean Rooms now supports catalog federation for remote Iceberg catalogs. This capability simplifies clean room setup by providing direct, secure access to Iceberg tables stored in Amazon S3 and cataloged in remote catalogs—without requiring table metadata replication. Organizations can now use AWS Glue catalog federation to provide direct access to their existing Iceberg REST catalog in a Clean Rooms collaboration. For example, a media publisher with data cataloged in the AWS Glue Data Catalog and an advertiser with data cataloged in a remote Iceberg catalog can analyze their collective datasets to evaluate advertising spend—without having to build ETL data pipelines or share underlying data with one another.

AWS Clean Rooms helps companies and their partners easily analyze and collaborate on their collective datasets without revealing or copying one another’s underlying data.
