Re: Converting Delta tables to Iceberg

Thank you! Seems like it would be a good tooling addition outside of the
Iceberg project.

Re: Converting Delta tables to Iceberg

We do not have a built in function but these instructions

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/databricks/delta/delta-utility#convert-a-delta-table-to-a-parquet-table
 


Could be followed by a "Migrate" or "Snapshot" command and that would do the 
conversion.

As for converting Delta Specific logs and history, that is not currently 
something we have. Could be something interesting to write, but probably 
wouldn't be a good fit for inside the Iceberg project itself (since I assume it 
would have a Delta dependency)
