Keynote Day 1: Ali Ghodsi, Co-founder and CEO of Databricks
Jun 12, 2024 · 28m · San Francisco, California
Ghodsi laid out the data intelligence platform: an open lakehouse where formats and governance stop locking data to one vendor, plus AI that understands a company's own data. The week's news included the Tabular acquisition to unify Delta Lake and Apache Iceberg, open-sourcing Unity Catalog, and all of Databricks going serverless.
