From our Discussion on slack - The issue here is our HMS code makes a "Table Object" that mirrors the Iceberg Schema. This is mostly for users looking at the HMS and we don't use this in our own code. The problem is that there is no analogue for Variant in Hive so the code which makes the Hive Schema fails. I suggest we either skip variant columns when we are converting or just put in a placeholder binary column labeled variant or something like that. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
