## Description

Iceberg MCP is a Rust-based server implementation that provides AI assistants with access to Apache Iceberg catalogs. Developed by Morris Tai, it currently supports REST catalogs with plans for AWS Glue, S3 Table, and Hive metastore integration. The server exposes five key tools for data exploration: listing namespaces and tables, retrieving table schemas, accessing table properties (including size and record count), and examining table partitions. Built with async support and comprehensive logging, it's particularly valuable for data engineers and analysts who need to explore and understand Iceberg data lakes through AI assistants without writing complex catalog interaction code.
