Symbol Guide

• ✅ — Query Engine connects to this catalog and reliably reads what OLake Go writes
• ⚠️ — Query engine connects to this catalog but can only read append-only OLake Go writes
• ❌ — Query engine doesn't support this catalog type

Important Notes

• Presto → REST catalog supported from v0.288+; Glue requires the AWS SDK fat-jar.
• Apache Hive v4.2.0 → Glue requires adding the AWS bundle.
• Impala → Reliable support for Hive Metastore; limited REST catalog support (read only).
• ClickHouse → Full read support; experimental Iceberg write support introduced in v25.7+
• Snowflake → Can read external REST catalogs, but tables are read-only for external catalog workflows.
• Azure Synapse Analytics → Iceberg support via Spark pools requires manual runtime configuration.
