Description:
In this video we are focusing on two key approaches: in-place migration and the migrate function. In-place migration leverages Iceberg's snapshot capability to create a new Iceberg table with minimal impact on the source table, making it ideal for testing. On the other hand, the migrate function fully transitions your data, offering performance improvements and cost savings, but requires a more significant commitment as it hides the old Hive table from users. We'll explore the pros and cons of each method, providing practical insights for your data migration journey.
