sivabalan narayanan commented on HUDI-2023:
-------------------------------------------

I tested both COW and MOR for simple schema evolution of adding a new column. 
Here are my findings. 

 

// "succeeds" refers to write succeeded and a read following the write 
succeeded to read entire dataset. 

 
|| ||COW||MOR||
|Adding a new nullable column at root level at the end|succeeds|succeeds|
|Adding a new nullable column to inner struct (at the end)|succeeds|succeeds|
|Adding a new non-nullable column at root level at the end|fails|write 
succeeds, but read fails as expected|
|Adding a new non-nullable column to inner struct (at the end)|fails|write 
succeeds, but read fails as expected|

 

Validated so far w/ spark datasource. Will update once I have results w/ delta 
streamer.
