## *Important Read* ISS-722 Add Iceberg Pluggable table format managed directly by Hudi ## What is the purpose of the pull request ISS-722 Add Iceberg Pluggable table format managed directly by Hudi Feature Request: Support for Pluggable Table Format in Apache Hudi Apache Hudi is introducing a pluggable table format to enable interoperability with other popular table formats like Iceberg, Delta Lake, and Lance. This allows external engines (e.g., Snowflake) to write to Hudi tables using their native formats while maintaining compatibility. The design focuses on decoupling metadata and storage layers, inspired by Snowflake's metadata architecture. This enhancement supports the modular, composable lakehouse model and promotes broader ecosystem adoption.
