For [1] Hive 3 was removed in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/NIFI-12981, if you mean the Hive dependency from Apache Iceberg we probably need a release from them that brings in Hive 4 dependencies? Or do you suggest we bring the Hive components back as long as we update the version?
I'll take the Flyway one in the meantime, database integrations are my blessing and my curse :) If that goes more smoothly than I expect I can grab the QuestDB one too, will update the Jiras as appropriate.
