Gnarly Data Waves: Apache Iceberg Office Hours
Get all your Apache Iceberg questions answered at Apache Iceberg office hours. Questions on architecture, migration and anything else are welcomed!
Join the Dremio developer advocacy and engineering teams for an installment of Apache Iceberg Office Hours. During this time we’ll have a brief Iceberg presentation on table format interoperability, going over the table format migration options, converters, and newer interoperability solutions like onetable and uniform. We’ll go through the capabilities, limitations, and considerations and then have lots of dedicated time for Q&A on the presented topic or any other questions or guidance you’re looking for help on in learning about Apache Iceberg or architecting your data lakehouse around Apache Iceberg.
Examples of questions you can come to ask:
-
- How can I optimize my Iceberg tables for my different use cases?
-
- What tools will best handle my ETL job to write to Iceberg?
-
- How can I control access to my Iceberg tables?
-
- How can I convert data from X into an Iceberg table?
-
- How can I get started with Iceberg in Databricks?
