During March 2026, contributed to the apache/iceberg-rust repository by developing a purge_table API that enables safe deletion of table data and metadata across multiple catalog types. This feature was implemented on the Catalog trait with a default method and further specialized for both S3TableCatalog and RestCatalog, ensuring consistent behavior across storage backends. The work included creating utility helpers in Rust and comprehensive tests within the table_suite to verify data removal and prevent leakage. By focusing on backend development and API design, this contribution improved data lifecycle management, cross-catalog governance, and compliance readiness without introducing any new bugs.
March 2026: Delivered Purge Table Data and Metadata Removal for apache/iceberg-rust, enabling safe deletion of a table's data and metadata across catalogs and preventing data leakage. Implemented purge_table API on the Catalog trait with a default implementation and specialized it for S3TableCatalog and RestCatalog; added helpers in catalog/utils.rs and introduced tests across catalog types (table_suite). This work enhances data lifecycle management, cross-catalog governance, and compliance readiness. Notable commit 56fda82f3ad68f3231ece7150f52b78df71bb06e (feat! catalog) with Closes #2133; tests added.
