Data Lake and Lakehouse Products

-

Here is a list of widely used Data Lake and Lakehouse products, which are designed to store, process, and analyze large amounts of structured and unstructured data:

A Data Lake is a centralized repository that allows you to store all your structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data at any scale. Below are some widely used data lake products:

Hadoop HDFS A distributed file system used by Hadoop for storing large datasets across multiple machines. Distributed storage, fault tolerance, scalability, cost-effective storage for big data workloads.
Databricks Delta Lake An open-source storage layer that brings ACID transactions to Apache Spark and big data workloads. ACID transactions, schema enforcement, data versioning, integrates with Apache Spark and Databricks.
IBM Cloud Object Storage A scalable object storage service for unstructured data in IBM Cloud. Highly scalable, data redundancy, secure storage, and integration with IBM Watson and AI tools.
Oracle Cloud Object Storage A scalable, durable, and secure object storage service used for building data lakes on Oracle Cloud. High availability, scalability, security, integrated with Oracle Cloud analytics and AI tools.
MinIO An open-source object storage platform for building high-performance data lakes. S3 compatibility, high performance, cloud-native, easy integration, scalability.

A Lakehouse combines the benefits of data lakes and data warehouses, providing structured data management and analytics along with unstructured data storage. Below are some popular Lakehouse products:

Lakehouse Products
Product Description Key Features
Databricks Lakehouse A unified analytics platform based on Apache Spark, combining the benefits of data lakes and warehouses. ACID transactions, Delta Lake, built-in ML and AI capabilities, integration with Apache Spark and AWS/Azure/Google Cloud.
Delta Lake An open-source storage layer providing ACID transactions, schema enforcement, and time travel for data lakes. ACID compliance, schema enforcement, time travel, versioned data, built on top of Apache Spark.
Google BigLake A storage engine from Google enabling management of data across data lakes and warehouses in a unified manner. Integration with Google Cloud storage, scalable, supports structured and unstructured data.
Apache Hudi An open-source framework for managing large-scale data in data lakes, enabling stream processing and upserts. Data versioning, support for incremental processing, schema evolution, ACID transactions.
Amazon Redshift Spectrum An extension of Amazon Redshift allowing SQL queries directly on data in S3 data lakes. Querying data in S3, integration with Amazon Redshift, highly scalable, supports structured and unstructured data.
Snowflake A cloud platform that supports both structured and semi-structured data, used for building Lakehouse architectures. Multi-cloud architecture, support for structured and semi-structured data, automatic scaling, data sharing.
Microsoft Azure Synapse Analytics An analytics service bridging data lakes and data warehouses, providing analytics on large datasets. SQL and Spark-based querying, integration with Azure Data Lake, real-time analytics, data exploration.
Databricks Unity Catalog A unified governance solution for data and AI to manage metadata and data assets in Lakehouse architectures. Centralized governance, auditing, data asset management, integration with Delta Lake.
Apache Iceberg An open-source table format for managing large-scale data in data lakes, optimizing query performance in Lakehouse architectures. ACID transactions, partitioned data, time travel, built on top of Hadoop and Spark.


Key Concepts of Data Lakes vs Lakehouses: Data Lakes: Primarily designed to store large amounts of raw, unprocessed, and unstructured data. They are highly scalable but often lack fine-grained data management, such as schema enforcement and transactional guarantees. Lakehouses: Combine the flexibility of data lakes (storing raw, unstructured data) with the transactional and management capabilities of data warehouses, offering structured data management, analytics, and performance optimization. These Data Lake and Lakehouse products are designed to help organizations manage and process vast amounts of data efficiently. The choice of product depends on the organization’s requirements, whether they need raw data storage, advanced analytics, or a combination of both.

Cloud Computing in simple

-
Cloud Computing =   Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) + Platform as a Service (PaaS) + Software as a Service (SaaS) Cloud computing, also known as Cloud Technology, Cloud Applications or Cloud-based services. Cloud Computing is the practice of using a network of remote servers hosted on the internet to store, manage and process data, rather than a local server or a personal computer. Examples of cloud-based services include customer self-scheduling, data storage, online payment, and accounting software Different Type of Clouds Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS)  – Allows users with the services like Virtual servers, Virtual storage, Physical Database, Virtual Network, Physical Network. E.g. Google Storage ,  IBM Cloud Computing ,  Nimbus Platform as a Service (PaaS)  – Provides computational resources via a platform upon which applications and services can be developed and hosted. E.g. Databases, Data Stores,  Force.com ,  Google App Engine ,...

Azure SQL Databases: Backups, Disaster Recovery, Import and Export

Azure SQL Database is a managed cloud database-as-a-service. It provides application developers with SQL Server databases which are hosted in the cloud and fully managed by Microsoft. The service is very easy to start with. Several clicks in the portal and you have a database running. Now you can copy the connection string to your application config file, and boom - you have all up and running. No installation, no license to buy - just pay the hourly fee. Any production database is a very important asset, so we are used to give it a good care in self-hosted scenario. A number of questions appear when you try to apply those practices to the cloud offering: How do I make a backup of my database? Where should I store it? How do I move my database including schema and data from on-premise to the cloud? How do I move it from the cloud to my local server? What is a point-in-time restore offered by Azure? Should I use geo-replication? What is geo-restore? In this post I'll ...
