Hi Max, We discussed this PR during the Iceberg-Spark Community Sync <https://docs.google.com/document/d/19nno1RoPznbbxKOZZddZNHHafa7XULjbN6RPExdr2n4/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.rav6546y5se4>, but I missed updating the PR with the details. The general conclusion from the meeting was that the community is moving away from extensions because they are fragile and difficult to maintain within Iceberg. However, I personally believe that CTAS is useful, and we should consider adding it to Spark if it is currently unsupported.
I would like to hear from other Spark experts on this thread before we decide whether to proceed. ~ Anurag On Sun, Mar 15, 2026 at 8:58 PM Max Konstantinov < [email protected]> wrote: > Hello, > > Can anybody spend the time reviewing my PR for adding that feature? > Not sure why it was ignored by original reviewers but let me know if it's > obsolete, no longer needed, or so low priority that no one cares. > > https://github.com/apache/iceberg/pull/14269 > > > Max. >
