Delta Live Tables support for Unity Catalog is in Public Preview. You can use Unity Catalog with your Delta Live Tables pipelines to:
Define a catalog in Unity Catalog where your pipeline will persist tables.
Read data from Unity Catalog tables.
See Use Unity Catalog with your Delta Live Tables pipelines.
By default, streaming tables require append-only sources. This release introduces the
skipChangeCommits
flag that can be set on a target streaming table to ignore changes in a source streaming table when the source table requires updates or deletes. See Configure a streaming table to ignore changes in a source streaming table.
With this release, the limit for concurrent updates in a workspace is increased to 100. The previous concurrent updates limit was 20.
When you run a Delta Live Tables pipeline from a pipeline notebook, you can now view the event log in the notebook sidebar. See Develop and debug Delta Live Tables pipelines in notebooks.
