Over the past decade, we’ve watched data infrastructure evolve from on-prem monoliths to highly modular, cloud-native platforms. But let’s rewind the clock a bit further to see how we got here—and why Apache Polaris (Incubating) just might be the missing piece for truly scalable, governed data lakehouse architectures. Back in the Hadoop era, the goal was clear: […]
This exclusive Q&A with Rahim Bhojani, CTO of Dremio, offers an introductory explanation of the model context protocol and why it is becoming the backbone of agentic AI.
