Look inside

Turn an existing data lake into a Lakehouse, using Delta Lake, an open table format (and the cornerstone of Databricks’ Lakehouse design). For data processing and interacting with the Lakehouse, you’ll use Apache Spark. As you transform the existing tables into Delta tables, you’ll explore Delta Lake’s rich features, see firsthand how it handles potential problems, and appreciate the sophistication of the Lakehouse design.

This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
