Amazon Athena supports the MERGE command on Apache Iceberg tables, which allows you to perform inserts, updates, and deletes in your data lake at scale using familiar SQL statements that are compliant with ACID (Atomic, Consistent, Isolated, Durable). The first task performs an initial copy of the full data into an S3 folder.
