Does liquid clustering preserve auditable tenant separation in a shared Delta table architecture?

We’re evaluating a multi-tenant Databricks architecture and considering Liquid Clustering on shared Delta tables. Our concern is that tenant SLAs require data separation for audit/compliance purposes.

 

I’m trying to understand whether Liquid Clustering is compatible with environments where tenant data must remain demonstrably isolated, or whether this becomes a logical-vs-physical isolation issue that would require separate tables/catalogs/storage per tenant.

 

Has anyone dealt with this tradeoff in practice?
