This patch introduces a param snapshotTime in the iceberg inputsource spec that allows the user to ingest data files associated with the most recent snapshot as of the given time. This helps the user ingest data based on older snapshots by specifying the associated snapshot time.
This patch also upgrades the iceberg core version to 1.4.1
This adds a new contrib extension: druid-iceberg-extensions which can be used to ingest data stored in Apache Iceberg format. It adds a new input source of type iceberg that connects to a catalog and retrieves the data files associated with an iceberg table and provides these data file paths to either an S3 or HDFS input source depending on the warehouse location.
Two important dependencies associated with Apache Iceberg tables are:
Catalog : This extension supports reading from either a Hive Metastore catalog or a Local file-based catalog. Support for AWS Glue is not available yet.
Warehouse : This extension supports reading data files from either HDFS or S3. Adapters for other cloud object locations should be easy to add by extending the AbstractInputSourceAdapter.
