Interface SupportsDynamicOverwrite

All Superinterfaces:
WriteBuilder

@Evolving public interface SupportsDynamicOverwrite extends WriteBuilder
Write builder trait for tables that support dynamic partition overwrite.

A write that dynamically overwrites partitions removes all existing data in each logical partition for which the write will commit new data. Any existing logical partition for which the write does not contain data will remain unchanged.

This is provided to implement SQL compatible with Hive table operations but is not recommended. Instead, use the overwrite by filter API to explicitly replace data.
