Speaker: Guanjie Shen

Abstract: Lakehouse is the newest paradigm emerging for modern data analytics architecture. It combines the flexibility, cost-efficiency, and scale of data lakes with the data management and ACID guarantees of data warehouses; enabling both business intelligence and machine learning workloads against a single source of truth.
