- Databricks already supports querying AWS Glue-managed Iceberg tables stored in S3 by integrating with the AWS Glue Iceberg REST Catalog.
- Unity Catalog in Databricks supports Iceberg reads on Delta tables (UniForm), enhancing interoperability with Iceberg clients.
- The public preview announcements refer to expanding and improving these capabilities, not the initial availability.
- For querying AWS-managed Iceberg tables (including S3 Tables), you need to configure Databricks clusters properly with the required libraries and Spark configurations.
Therefore, you can currently query AWS Glue Iceberg tables in S3 from Databricks. Check out this blog post.
If you want to set this up, focus on configuring your Databricks cluster with the Glue Iceberg REST Catalog endpoint and ensure you have the right runtime (15.4 LTS or later) and dependencies installed, as shown in AWS documentation and blog posts.
Hope this helps, Lou.
