+### Build Compatibility Matrix
+
+The examples printed by `./auron-build.sh --help` use the following documented build
+configurations based on the current compatibility checks. A dash (`—`) means that the
+integration is not supported for that Spark version and must not be passed to
+`auron-build.sh`.
+
+| Spark | Scala | JDK | Docker image | Flink | Celeborn | Uniffle | Paimon | Iceberg | Hudi |
+| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
+| 3.5 | 2.12 | 8+ | `rockylinux8` | 1.18 | 0.6 | 0.10 | 1.2 | 1.10.1 | 0.15 |
+| 4.0 | 2.13 | 17+ | `rockylinux8` | 1.18 | 0.6 | 0.10 | 1.2 | 1.10.1 | — |
+| 4.1 | 2.13 | 17+ | `rockylinux8` | 1.18 | 0.6 | 0.10 | 1.2 | — | — |
+
+Spark 4.x requires Scala 2.13 and JDK 17 or later. In Docker mode,
+`auron-build.sh` selects JDK 17 for Spark 4.x, and the `rockylinux8` image applies that
+selection. The `centos7` image only provides JDK 8 and must not be used for Spark 4.x.
+
+Iceberg 1.10.1 supports Spark 3.4, 3.5, and 4.0 in Auron. Spark 4.1 support requires a
+future upgrade to Iceberg 1.11.0 or later. Hudi 0.15 supports Spark 3.0 through 3.5.
+When a supported version or compatibility rule changes, update this matrix and the
+examples in `auron-build.sh` together.

 ### Running Tests
 
 By default, the build script skips unit tests (`--skiptests true`). To run them, you must explicitly set `--skiptests false`, as shown in the examples below:
