Why does it not support TRUNCATE?
1 comments

My understanding is the way Aurora DSQL distributes data widely makes bulk writes extremely slow/expensive. So no COPY, INSERT with >3k rows, TRUNCATE etc
TRUNCATE is DROP TABLE + CREATE TABLE, it’s not a bulk delete. It bypasses the typical path for writes entirely.
