 ### Limitations
 
-Currently Flink's Hive data connector does not support writing into partitions. This feature is under active development.
+The following is a list of major limitations of the Hive connector. And we're actively working to close these gaps.
+
+1. INSERT OVERWRITE is not supported.
+2. Inserting into partitioned tables is not supported.
+3. ACID tables are not supported.
+4. Bucketed tables are not supported.
+5. Some data types are not supported. See the [limitations]({{ site.baseurl }}/dev/table/hive/#limitations) for details.
+6. Only a limited number of table storage formats have been tested, namely text, ORC, and Parquet.
 
 Review comment:
   I don't think so according to our previous tests. Also manually verified reading ORC/Parquet tables with different compression codec and seems we're good.
