Hi Anton,
Good point. I agree that we should try to keep the Iceberg and HMS table
props in sync (perhaps with some additional props present only in HMS, as
needed by Hive). There are 2 directions here:
- Iceberg -> HMS: New and updated Iceberg properties are already pushed to
HMS. As for deleted props, I can work on unsetting any HMS properties that are
no longer present in the Iceberg table props. At first glance, this would be
based on which keys are present in `base.properties()`, but are no longer
present in `metadata.properties()` in `doCommit`.
- HMS -> Iceberg: Our plan is to extend the hive `MetaHook` interface to add
a `postAlterTable` method which is currently missing that'd enable users to run
an `ALTER TABLE tbl SET TBLPROPERTIES('foo'='bar')` DDL from hive and get the
prop change pushed down the to the Iceberg table props as well.
