Review Comment:
   Hi @CTTY, With the previous approach createOrReplaceTable is not functioning 
in the expected way. We observed that partitions are not dropped when the 
updateTable is called with latest properties. This is causing issues with the 
glue sync. 
   
   In this approach, we're dropping the table and creating the new table which 
should solve this issue.
