Hi @pooja_bhumandla , Yes, deletion vectors are supported for partitioned delta tables in Databricks. It comes as part of storage optimization that allows to delete, update, merge operations to mark existing rows as removed or changed without rewriting the whole Parquet file. This helps in optimize performance of partitioned tables by managing row-level change more efficiently.
