Apache Iceberg adds read restrictions and catalog labels
The Apache Iceberg project has rolled out new features to its REST Catalog: read restrictions and catalog labels. These changes help organizations set more precise data access policies when multiple query engines connect to the same data. Now, access policies can be made portable across catalogs, and enforcement can be delegated to external engines that support these controls. This update is part of ongoing work toward unified data governance.
- Read restrictions standardize data-access enforcement across engines
- Catalog labels make governance context portable between catalogs
- Trusted engines can enforce row and column limits defined by the catalog
- Databricks and others are building on these features for unified governance
