Feb 1, 2025February 2025 monthly summary for rapid7/iceberg focusing on data integrity, API governance, and deployment safety. Delivered critical correctness fixes in the Table Path Rewrite workflow to ensure only live data is rewritten, updated metadata references for statistics files, and included statistics files in copy plans to prevent data loss. Extended Spark 3.5 support for statistics in RewriteTablePath to maintain accurate analytics during rewrites. Introduced a safe API improvement with an optional overwrite flag for table registration, enabling safer metadata updates. Hardened CI/CD by restricting Docker image publishing to the Apache repository owner, reducing risk of publishing from forks. Overall, these changes improved reliability, governance, and security across data workflows and deployment pipelines.

Nov 1, 2024November 2024 summary for rapid7/iceberg: Implemented critical validation to ensure table commit properties are valid, reducing risk of commit failures and corrupted data propagation. The change introduces non-negative integer checks, uses propertyTryAsInt for retry-related properties, and adds validateCommitProperties to PropertyUtil to centralize property validation and prevent failures caused by invalid values.
