### Query engine I am using our own data processing application. ### Question Apace Iceberg library offers **RESTCatalog** through which I am able to connect with BigLake Metastore. There is another relatively new catalog called **BigQueryMetastoreCatalog** that I have not tried yet. Which one to pick to create/update Iceberg tables for BigQuery consumption ? The RESTCatalog has some limitations when dealing with BigQuery: - The tables created through RESTCatalog do not automatically appear in BigQuery. We need to manually create an external table in BigQuery using the metadata location. - Whenever the table's snapshot is updated, the new metadata location need to be manually updated in BigQuery. - These tables are readonly in BigQuery The new catalog BigQueryMetastoreCatalog is supposed to address any of these limitations ? -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
