Hi all, My name is Rahil Chertara, and I’m a part of the Data Infra team at Onehouse.
Recently I saw the Roadmap <https://github.com/apache/polaris/discussions/1028> for Apache Polaris, and became interested in the proposal of Generic Tables and Delta Support. I am interested in understanding the Polaris community's vision for supporting open table formats like Delta and Hudi, and was wondering if Polaris will be handling metadata translation/conversion between table formats, as mentioned by this overview doc <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1H2StuZ26LroibuQni3IJlErlKgrV9fEvYLHHqN7HWfE/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.b956txtpu769> ? In order to assist in this conversation, I wanted to share a proposal with the Polaris community on leveraging Apache XTable for handling this metadata conversion piece. Link to my proposal: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gHM9Qco83EFTTAfByyN3hYLLCghuackL5ogC2T1M074/edit?usp=sharing Appreciate any thoughts and feedback from the community and am also open to discuss this in one of the upcoming community syncs. Regards, Rahil Chertara
