Never a boring day here at Databricks... Welcome Tabular! “What we want to do is create custom AI on all of your data. That’s what we call data intelligence,” Ali Ghodsi, chief executive and co-founder of Databricks, said in an interview. “For that, we need all the data. The more data the better.” The quest to capture more business data rests on making it easier for customers to use multiple data formats in the cloud at once, without driving up costs, Ghodsi said. That’s where Tabular comes in. https://lnkd.in/gqCFgqSs

Sometimes it's the simple explanation that say everything....! Welcome aboard Tabular (now part of Databricks) on Databricks rocketship 🚀🚀🚀 Like the HD DVD 💿 vs. Blu-ray choice 💿 , the problem isn’t about determining which standard is better. The problem is that the risk of investing in the wrong format prevents people from choosing at all. So when Databricks reached out to me and proposed a collaboration that could bring Iceberg and Delta closer together, working toward a common standard, I realized that this was a unique opportunity to make one of the hardest decisions in data architecture simply go away, so that you don’t have to care about table formats. https://lnkd.in/dA9Ym-q7
