Hi all, I wanted to bring up a suggestion regarding our current documentation. The existing examples for Iceberg often use the Hadoop catalog, as seen in:
- Adding a Catalog - Spark Quickstart [1] - Adding Catalogs - Spark Getting Started [2] Since we generally advise against using Hadoop catalogs in production environments, I believe it would be beneficial to replace these examples with ones that use the JDBC catalog. The JDBC catalog, configured with a local SQLite database file, offers similar convenience but aligns better with production best practices. I've created an issue [3] and a PR [4] to address this. Please take a look, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on whether this is a direction we want to pursue. Best, Kevin Liu [1] https://iceberg.apache.org/spark-quickstart/#adding-a-catalog [2] https://iceberg.apache.org/docs/nightly/spark-getting-started/#adding-catalogs [3] https://github.com/apache/iceberg/issues/11284 [4] https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/11285
