   > * What happens, if a table is modified in one of the catalogs (I suspect 
that this is catalog dependent as HiveCatalog will not follow the changes, but 
HadoopTable/HadoopCatalog might follow each others changes, as they rely on the 
file names)

decides that one of the files are not needed anymore, then it could remove the 
file, even if the file is still needed for the other table.

   Thanks for the questions @pvary. I haven't really thought about concurrent 
access to the tables from multiple catalogs. It did come up a little bit in our 
[DR 
discussion](https://lists.apache.org/thread/8cg14cvs0hxybpvz20olr78ysm7xrtw2) 
in the dev list. I'm not sure this should be allowed. 
   
   @aokolnychyi - What are your thoughts on this?
