Dremio has turned an Iceberg V3 product milestone into a bigger open source power move, pairing GA support with deeper Apache Polaris momentum and JB Onofre’s election to the Apache Software Foundation board to strengthen standards-led lakehouse interoperability.
Dremio has expanded its open-source leadership across the Apache Iceberg ecosystem with the general availability of Iceberg V3 support in Dremio Cloud, stronger stewardship of Apache Polaris, and a key governance win through the election of engineer JB Onofre to the Apache Software Foundation (ASF) board.
