-Apache Polaris now provides Catalog support for Generic Tables (non-Iceberg
tables), please check out
-the [Polaris Catalog OpenAPI Spec]({{% ref
"polaris-api-specs/polaris-catalog-api.md" %}}) for Generic Table API specs.
+Polaris provides a Spark client to manage non-Iceberg tables through [Generic
Tables]({{% ref "generic-table.md" %}}).
-Along with the Generic Table Catalog support, Polaris is also releasing a
Spark client, which helps to
-provide an end-to-end solution for Apache Spark to manage Delta tables using
Polaris.
+{{< alert note >}}
+The Spark client can manage Iceberg tables and non-Iceberg tables.
-Note the Polaris Spark client is able to handle both Iceberg and Delta tables,
not just Delta.
+Users who only use Iceberg tables can use Spark without this client.
Review Comment:
I 100% agree. This is to clarify to our users that they do not need this
plugin to interact with Iceberg tables. I know that a user felt necessary to
make this known here in Slack:
https://apache-polaris.slack.com/archives/C084QSKD6S2/p1762432300234359
So, this is just for clarity.
