Mooncake Labs has joined Databricks to enhance its capabilities in building data-driven solutions, particularly focusing on lakehouse architecture. This collaboration aims to accelerate innovation in data management and analytics.
Databricks has introduced Lakebase, a fully managed PostgreSQL OLTP engine integrated into its platform, aimed at bridging the gap between OLTP and OLAP systems. This development offers features like Postgres compatibility, unified security, and elastic storage, potentially streamlining operations for teams already using Databricks. However, its impact may vary for organizations not heavily invested in the Databricks ecosystem.
Databricks has announced the public preview of Lakehouse for Data Warehousing, which aims to enable more efficient data management and analytics by integrating data lakes and data warehouses. This new platform allows users to run SQL queries directly on data stored in a lakehouse, providing enhanced performance and capabilities for data-driven decision-making.
