+Apache Polaris 1.0.0-incubating was released on July 9th, 2025.
+- **Highlights**
+ - First release ready for real-world workloads after the public beta 0.9.0
+ - **Binary distribution** -- first release with single downloadable .tgz
or .zip artifact.
+ - **Helm Chart** – debut of an official Helm chart for seamless Kubernetes
deployment
+- **New features & enhancements**
+ - **Policy Store** — persistence with schema evolution, built‑in TMS
policies (Data compaction, Snapshot expiry, etc) and REST CRUD endpoints
+ - **Postgres JDBC persistence** — native JDBC backend with robust support
for concurrent changes.
+ - **Rollback Compaction on Conflicts** - Makes Polaris smarter, to revert
the compaction commits in case of crunch to let the writers who are actually
adding or removing the data to the table succeed. In a sense treating
compaction as always a lower priority process.
+ - **Enhanced runtime** — new runtime powered by Quarkus delivers
out‑of‑the‑box Kubernetes readiness, quick startup, OIDC integration, and many
other benefits. Polaris server and admin tool are now using Quarkus as a
runtime framework.
+ - **HTTP caching via ETag** — the loadTable endpoint supports ETag,
reducing bandwidth and improving perceived latency
+ - **Support for external identity providers (IdP)** — Polaris can now be
its own IdP, delegate to an external IdP, or both
+ - **Snapshot filtering** – Clients can choose to load only referenced
snapshots
+ - **Catalog Federation (experimental)** – Federate requests to an external
Iceberg REST or Hadoop Catalog
+ - **Generic Tables (experimental)** — serve multiple table formats (Delta,
CSV, Parquet) besides Iceberg tables; initial Spark 3.5 plugin supports Delta
Lake
Review Comment:
let's only mention delta for now, the other formats are not well tested yet,
even though we have briefly tested it out
