> why you don't use the iceberg catalog? what is the use case for using hcatalog? cc. @deniskuzZ HCatStorer and HCatLoader are used to read and write Hive tables via Apache Pig. Right now there is no other catalog to read Iceberg tables via Apache Pig. The [Pig Reader](https://github.com/apache/iceberg/tree/master/pig/src/main/java/org/apache/iceberg/pig) available in Iceberg can only read Parquet tables with Hadoop catalog. There is no way to read tables in Glue or Hive catalog via Pig. Also there is no way to write data via Pig. HCatStorer and HCatLoader needs only minor changes to support Iceberg table. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
