July 2026: Implemented Azure storage support improvements in the Hive Connector for prestodb/presto, adding per-storage-account OAuth token scope and explicit registration of Hadoop filesystem implementations for ABFS/ABFSS and WASB/WASBS schemes. This work unifies authentication and filesystem registration across Hive, Iceberg, Delta, and Hudi ecosystems, reducing access failures when working with Azure Data Lake Storage. Root cause analysis identified differences in Hadoop Configuration loading between Iceberg's native catalog factory and the Hive-based modules; the fix ensures ABFS schemes are correctly registered and OAuth token provider configuration is scoped to the specific storage account. Result: more reliable ADLS access, improved compatibility, and smoother data lake operations.

June 2026 monthly summary for prestodb/presto focusing on Iceberg integration and reliability improvements. Delivered critical bug fix to prevent silent data loss when Presto reads Iceberg manifest files and introduced version validation that surfaces explicit errors (ICEBERG_INCOMPATIBLE_VERSION) instead of silent 0-row results. Implemented hyphenated quoted STRUCT field names support in nested ROW types with proper hex-encoding for Parquet storage, expanding compatibility and preventing INSERT/SELECT failures for complex field names. These changes enhance data correctness, user feedback, and parity with Iceberg’s evolution while broadening Iceberg table support.
