Apache Iceberg: A Reliable Table Format for Big Data Analytics

Apache Iceberg is a high-performance format for massive analytic tables. It allows engines like Spark, Trino, Flink, and more to safely work with the same tables concurrently. Iceberg supports flexible SQL commands for merging data, updating rows, and targeted deletes, optimizing read and write performance through data file rewriting or delta updates. Furthermore, it offers hidden partitioning, time travel, and rollback capabilities for efficient querying and data management.
