Amazing article! Lot of depth. Is choosing between Apache Iceberg format or a delta table format depends on whether we use Databricks or Snowflake? Or, are there other factors to consider when laying down the architecture foundations? Might be a stupid question but I am just getting started on these formats.
Note: Nessie is an open source project. But it is not an "Apache" project.
So, we should mention it as "Nessie" instead of "Apache Nessie" in all the places.
Very interesting introduction to Apache Iceberg, thank you for this!
Thanks for the shout out!

> For example, Snowflake can only read from an external catalog, and an external catalog can only read from a Snowflake catalog.
Did you mean: For example, Snowflake (engine) can only read from an external catalog, and an external engine can only read from a Snowflake catalog.
Great way to explain Iceberg, going to use this in my work!
