+
+Starting with version **4.2.0**, Apache Impala provides full support for
+querying data stored in **Apache Ozone**. To utilize this functionality,
+ensure that your Ozone version is **1.4.0** or later.
+
+## Supported Access Protocols
+
+Impala supports the following protocols for accessing Ozone data:
+
+* ofs
+* s3a
+
+Note: The o3fs protocol is **NOT** supported by Impala.
+
+## Supported Bucket Types
+
+Impala is compatible with Ozone buckets configured with either:
+
+* RATIS (Replication)
+* Erasure Coding
+
+## Querying Ozone Data with Impala
+
+**If Ozone is configured as the default file system**, you can run Impala
+queries seamlessly without modifications, just as if the file system were
+HDFS. For example:
+
+```sql
+  CREATE TABLE t1 (x INT, s STRING);
+```
+
+**If Ozone is not the default file system**, you must specify the Ozone path
+explicitly using the LOCATION clause. For example:
+
+```sql
+  CREATE DATABASE d1 LOCATION 'ofs://ozone1/vol1/bucket1/d1.db';
+```
+
+For additional information, consult the Apache Impala User Documentation
+[Using Impala with Apache Ozone Storage](https://impala.apache.org/docs/build/html/topics/impala_ozone.html).

+Many applications can be integrated with Ozone through the the Hadoop compatible ofs interface or the S3 interface.
