Apache Iceberg is a high-performance table format for analytic data lakes, providing ACID transactions, snapshot isolation, schema evolution, and time travel. The repository contains the Java reference implementation, including core libraries for table metadata management, file format support (Parquet, ORC, Avro, Arrow), expression evaluation, encryption, and a REST catalog protocol. It integrates deeply with Spark (versions 3.5, 4.0, 4.1, 4.2), Flink (1.20, 2.2, 2.3), Kafka Connect, Hive, and cloud object stores (AWS S3, Azure ADLS, Aliyun OSS, GCS). The architecture is modular: the `api` module defines public interfaces (Table, Catalog, Scan, FileIO), `core` provides implementations and utilities, and separate modules handle engine-specific integrations and cloud backends. Key entry points include the Table interface for DDL/DML operations, Scan for query planning, FileIO for storage access, and the REST catalog client for remote metadata management. Data flows involve reading/writing manifest files, applying expressions for predicate pushdown, and coordinating commits via optimistic concurrency control. External dependencies include Apache Parquet, ORC, Avro, Arrow, and various cloud SDKs, but the core is designed to be lightweight and extensible.
