[I] [Proposal] New “update” method for Iceberg tables/transactions. [iceberg-python]
albert-moreno-sugranyes opened a new issue, #2391:
URL: https://github.com/apache/iceberg-python/issues/2391
### Feature Request / Improvement
This proposal stems from the need to expand Iceberg's capabilities to provide more granular control over table updates. While the existing operations are powerful and suitable for most conventional data lakehouse workloads, each is optimized for a very specific use case.
The upsert method is the ideal tool for merge operations, but its reliance on join keys makes it unsuitable for updates that are driven by simple filter conditions. Similarly, the overwrite operation is designed for large-scale partition or table replacement, making it highly inefficient when you only need to modify a small subset of rows.
