The Data Lakehouse is hotting up as the go-to cloud Data Warehouse and Analytics methodology. Combining the scale and flexibility of the data lake with the schema enforcement and transactional consistency of data warehouse database systems, the lakehouse pattern brings a huge advantage for organisations with both complex and large amounts of data. But what underpins lakehouse technology?...

In this session we'll be diving into 3 of the data storage formats that have emerged in recent years and understand how they work.

1. Delta Lake
2. Apache Iceberg
3. Apache Hudi

We'll discuss the benefits and drawbacks of each format and look at technology platforms and vendors that support these formats.
After this session you will have the power of knowledge to deal with the different formats in use with the Data Lakehouse and make an informed decision about the format(s) to use in a data solution.
