Hi folks, I’m sharing the design doc for *Table Maintenance in Polaris* (link <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Pd_mzZcfvnUvcH98IbwsIYf4eryet1lQDfclKYx-t-M/edit?usp=sharing>). This outlines an approach to handling maintenance tasks—like data compaction and snapshot expiration—while keeping Polaris lightweight and focused on catalog essentials.
Key points covered: 1. Metadata needed in Polaris to support the Table Maintenance System (TMS) 2. Communication model between Polaris and TMS Take a look, and feel free to share your thoughts!
