# Announcing first-class support of Iceberg format in the Databricks Delta Sharing

**[databricks](https://daily.dev/sources/databricks)** · 5 min read · 2 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Databricks Delta Sharing now supports Apache Iceberg format, enabling data providers to share Delta tables with any Iceberg-compatible client (Snowflake, Trino, Flink, Spark) via the Iceberg REST Catalog API. A private preview also allows sharing Iceberg tables from external catalogs like AWS Glue or Snowflake Horizon through Delta Sharing. This eliminates manual data exports and replication, providing secure, live access across platforms while maintaining unified governance through Unity Catalog. Recipients experience shared Delta tables as native Iceberg tables, combining Delta Sharing's advanced features with Iceberg ecosystem compatibility.
