What the current evidence supports
Human editorial judgment · 2026-06-28
Adopt with guardrails
- Why
- v3 is ratified with broad multi-vendor backing (AWS, Databricks, Google, Snowflake, Starburst) and real CDC/compaction wins, but support is engine-by-engine and v4 is still scaffolding — adopt v3 selectively, do not bank on v4.
- Next
- Adopt v3 deletion vectors + row lineage on engines that fully support them (verify per-engine via AWS/Databricks/Snowflake matrices before setting format-version=3); plan the Java 17/21 upgrade for 1.11; treat v4 as design-watch only.
