Thanks for looking into this, @singhpk234 ! Initially I had the same thoughts. However, we don't really have documentation for metadata tables apart from the Spark docs. We could still fill in this gap, but it came up during one of the V4 AMT syncs that for V4 table we probably want to support a different set of metadata tables than for pre-v4 tables. Also, earlier in Impala we also found it useful to introduce SQL support to query the possible metadata tables. It helped users with observability IMO. When writing SQL probably no one would want to get back to docs to see the list of metadata tables. WDYT? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
