The New Data Tier

Join Tomer Shiran, Dremio Co-Founder and CPO, as he explores the evolution of cloud data lakes and the separation of compute and data. He’ll share how emerging open source projects like Apache Iceberg and Project Nessie are bringing transactions, data mutations, time travel and even a git-like experience to cloud data lakes on Amazon S3 and Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS). With these advances, data essentially becomes its own tier, enabling us to think about data architectures in a completely different way.
