9. Delta Lake Integration

10. Why Delta Lake?
▪ ACID properties over data lake
▪ Open source table format
▪ Stored as Parquet files
▪ Object storage support
▪ Schema evolution
▪ Time travel feature
▪ Metadata & statistics
▪ Data skipping & z-ordering

11. Native Presto Delta Lake Reader
Supports data skipping & dynamic filtering
Optimizes query using file statistics
Supports reading the Delta transaction log
Native connector written from scratch

12. Native Delta Lake Reader Performance
▪ 2x average speedup across 22 queries
▪ 6x best query speedup
▪ “What we have here is game changing for
our industry. Especially now that the native
Delta reader works as fast as it does. We
have people lining up to now use this data”
▪ “We have queries that were running in 10
minutes that are now running in 47
seconds"

19. Data Flow Diagram
Using a combination of Databricks and Starburst Presto to
bring a full data ingestion and analytical environment to life

20. Data Ingestion and Transformation
● Real-time ingestion of event data into
Delta tables
● Customer and inventory data ingested
every hour
● Modified customer information merged
into Delta Lake table
● Data marts created using streaming and
batch data

21. Query-time Data Federation
● Single point of access to numerous data
sources
● Query Delta Lake and federate with
legacy databases as well as many
NoSQL data stores
● Enforce table, column and row level
policies to ensure maximum data
security
● Mask column data for different groups
and users

22. Data Consumption & Analytics BI Reporting Tools
SQL Query Tools
• Connect using a variety of BI and SQL
tools including Looker, Tableau, Power
BI and DBeaver
• JDBC, ODBC and many libraries
including Python, R and Java
SELECT id, COUNT(*), SUM(active_seconds)
FROM delta.iot.events e
JOIN snowflake.sales.customer c ON (e.customer_id = c.id)
WHERE e.event_date >= current_date
AND c.region = 'US'
AND c.id IN
(SELECT l.customer_id
FROM elastic.web.logs l
WHERE l.visit_date >= date '2020-01-01')
GROUP BY id;
