JingsongLi opened a new pull request, #8597: URL: https://github.com/apache/paimon/pull/8597
## What changed - add a new multimodal-table document for Variant storage - compare Variant with JSON stored as a string across semantics, storage, and queries - document plain and shredded physical layouts - describe explicit and inferred shredding schemas, query pushdown, and limitations - add Variant Storage to the multimodal-table overview ## Why Paimon supports Variant binary storage and Variant shredding, but the multimodal documentation did not provide a focused explanation of when to use Variant instead of a JSON string or how shredding changes physical reads. ## User impact Users now have a single guide for choosing Variant, configuring shredding, and understanding the Spark and Flink version and Parquet format requirements. ## Validation - `git diff --check` - `npx --yes yarn build` The Docusaurus build completed successfully. It reported the existing site-wide broken link warning for `/docs/master/concepts/overview`. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
