> > However, some catalogs such as Glue Data Catalog only accept lowercase as its table name, and this renaming operation in the migrate procedure would be a blocker for running the migrate. > > I think @jackye1995 @amogh-jahagirdar @singhpk234 have more knowledge about this. Let me add my thoughts. As described above, the current migrate keeps the source Spark table as a backup table with `<src_table>_BACKUP_`. This would causes the Iceberg validation exception if Glue Data Catalog impl in Iceberg handles such as table. And, the backup table can be kept without dropping the table. This would be possible to occur the table name conflication. The ability to specify the backup table name should be necessary to expand the capability and avoid the name confliction. Therefore I submitted this PR. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service. To respond to the message, please log on to GitHub and use the URL above to go to the specific comment.
