> why do we need to check compatibility for type conversion here? My idea is explained here https://github.com/apache/hudi/issues/11599#issuecomment-2233364178 The current proposal is to fail to sync when hive does not support the promotion (while hudi does) > If the data has been successfully written, it indicates that Hudi supports it. Perhaps it's unnecessary to perform type conversion checks in this context. Indeed, and there is no check for hudi. Only for hive here (metadata sync). > Regarding metadata synchronization, allowing the metadata engine to determine whether it supports type updates would be beneficial. Do you mean, letting the metadata engine to fail at runtime if it does not support the operation ?
