Why it matters

This feature allows users to use plain_rewritable metadata with local and Azure Blob Storage object storages, enabling more flexible and efficient data management by supporting overwriting of metadata. It solves the limitation of metadata handling in these storage types, improving compatibility and usability for scenarios requiring metadata updates.

How to use it

To use this feature, configure the object storage settings with the plain_rewritable metadata option enabled for local or azure_blob_storage storages. Update your storage configuration accordingly to support metadata overwriting capabilities.
