Delta Lake

Delta Lake is an open format storage layer that delivers reliability, security and performance on your data lake — for both streaming and batch operations. By replacing data silos with a single home for structured, semi-structured and unstructured data, Delta Lake is the foundation of a cost-effective, highly scalable lakehouse.

In this demo, we’ll show you how Delta Lake works and its main capabilities:

• ACID transactions
• Support for DELETE/UPDATE/MERGE
• Unify batch and streaming
• Time travel
• Clone zero copy
• Generated partitions
• CDF (change data flow) (DBR runtime)
• Delta 3.0: Blazing-fast queries with Liquid Clustering, automatically creating your partitions without skew
• Delta 3.0: Universal Format allowing other formats to natively read your Delta Lake tables, without lockin (Uniform)

To install the demo, get a free Databricks workspace and execute the following two commands in a Python notebook

%pip install dbdemos

import dbdemos
dbdemos.install('delta-lake')
