Query AWS SageMaker Catalog System Tables

Overview

Works best with the AWS MCP server for sandboxed execution and audit logging. All commands below use the AWS CLI and work in any environment with configured AWS credentials.

Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio (whose catalog feature is referred to below as SageMaker Catalog) exports asset metadata as a daily-snapshot Apache Iceberg table in the AWS-managed aws-sagemaker-catalog table bucket. This enables SQL queries over your entire data catalog inventory — asset counts, governance gaps, ownership audits, and historical comparisons — without building custom ETL.

Data is partitioned by snapshot_time and exported once daily (around midnight per region). The table is read-only.
