How to structure the Data Lake

The key reasons for the need of good data lake structure are: 1) Security: need of role-based security on the lake for read access. 2) Extendibility: it should be easy to extend the lake after first round and more systems can be added 3) Usability: it should be easy to use and find the data in the lake and the users should not get lost 4) Governance: it should be simple to apply governance practices to the lake in terms of quality, metadata management and ILM

Lambda Architecture using Databricks

From technology point of view Databricks is becoming the new normal in data processing technologies, in both Azure and AWS. This post provides a view of lambda architecture and uses Databricks at front and center. Databricks has capabilities to replace multiple tools and those are described in bit detail below

Introduction to Lambda Architecture

Lambda architecture is a data-processing architecture designed to handle massive quantities of data by taking advantage of both batch and stream-processing methods. This approach of architecture attempts to balance latency, throughput, and fault-tolerance by using batch processing to provide comprehensive and accurate views of batch data, while simultaneously using real-time stream processing to provide views of online data.
