Tabular is an independent storage platform from the creators of Apache Iceberg, including ingestion, performance optimization, central RBAC and SaaS simplicity.
Big news!
@databricks
has completed their acquisition of Tabular, bringing together the original creators of
#ApacheIceberg
and those of Linux Foundation
#DeltaLake
, the two leading open source table formats.
We are thrilled to announce that
@databricks
and Tabular are joining forces to solve lakehouse interoperability. We intend to work closely across the
#ApacheIceberg
and
#DeltaLake
communities to bring open table format compatibility to the
#lakehouse
.
Exciting news! We closed a $26M round of funding from Altimeter,
@a16z
and Zetta Venture Partners to build our independent data platform based on
#Apacheiceberg
.
We've also have added
#GoogleCloud
and Amazon Athena support.

Rui Li has written a blog on how Bilibili built an OLAP
#DataLakehouse
with
#ApacheIceberg
. With over 1,000
#Iceberg
tables that comprise over 10PB of data and a daily increment of 75TB.
#Trino
is serving over 200k queries daily
Recently,
#polars
-- the Rust-based DataFrames library -- added the ability to ingest data from
#apacheiceberg
tables using
#pyiceberg
.
Read the blog below from PyIceberg committer
@FDriesprong
to see how to start using them together.

Jason Hughes has a compelling new blog on how
#ApacheIceberg
is really opening up the data space, by empowering a large selection of compute engines on the same data, without vendor lock-in. See what you think of his points.
