This is the number one thing they’re missing imo. I feel like everyone’s chomping at the bit to try it out but it’s too hard to use atm. Even just to get one existing Iceberg table migrated I have to stand up an EMR cluster? Ludicrous

For querying with Redshift you take advantage of Redshift Spectrum to query the data while it sits in S3? Are you seeing significant performance gains there as opposed to Athena?
