Databricks: The Power of Delta Lake and Lakehouse Architecture

Big Industries recently entered into a partnership with Databricks, the leading cloud-based Data and AI platform that enables organizations to unify their data engineering, data science, machine learning and analytics solutions. Databricks helps businesses solve some of the most challenging data problems and deliver innovative solutions faster and more efficiently.

The Lakehouse Platform enables users to unify data and AI across various sources and formats, and scale up or down as needed. Databricks also offers a collaborative environment where data teams can work together and share insights.

What is Delta Lake and Lakehouse Architecture?

Delta Lake is an open-source storage layer that brings reliability, performance, and quality to data lakes. Delta Lake enables users to manage and query both structured and unstructured data with ACID transactions, schema enforcement, and time travel. Delta Lake also supports streaming and batch processing, and integrates with popular frameworks like Apache Spark, Apache Hive, and Presto.

Lakehouse architecture is a new paradigm that combines the best of data lakes and data warehouses. Lakehouse architecture allows users to build data pipelines that can handle both traditional analytics and advanced AI use cases, such as machine learning and deep learning. Lakehouse architecture leverages Delta Lake as the foundation, and adds features like governance, security, and metadata management.
