I am trying to migrate a Datawarehouse to Delta lake. One thing that I am struggling to figure out is how to connect to Delta Lake (silver and gold) tables outside a spark session. I want to able to connect to these tables using BI tools like Tableau. I am not using databricks and I was wondering if storing these tables in the hive metastore could help. If not this then could someone help me with an alternative approach or if this is feasible or not.

You can have a Hive metastore and a Thrift server with Spark open source and delta.io open source then connect Tableau desktop for instance.
