I know it's not the answer to your question and I'm not familiar with your use case.... but ... my sense is that data tables are meant to be used as ad-hoc utilities rather than primary data sources. Besides being cumbersome to update/edit, the data is static.
Have you looked into leveraging data actions on API's from other data sources / crm tools in your organization, or possibly using AWS Lambdas to call other data sources?
