Flink Actions

Rewrite files action🔗

Iceberg provides API to rewrite small files into large files by submitting Flink batch jobs. The behavior of this Flink action is the same as Spark's rewriteDataFiles.

import org.apache.iceberg.flink.actions.Actions;

TableLoader tableLoader = TableLoader.fromHadoopTable("hdfs://nn:8020/warehouse/path");
Table table = tableLoader.loadTable();
RewriteDataFilesActionResult result = Actions.forTable(table)
        .rewriteDataFiles()
        .execute();
