Enhancing interoperability of open table formats with Apache XTable
Stephen Said, Senior Solutions Architect @ AWS
Matthias Rudolph, Associate Solutions Architect @ AWS
XTable is an incubating Apache project for conversion between open table formats (OTF) which improves the interoperability of analytical data. For instance, XTable converts Delta Lake to Iceberg without data duplication.
In this session, Stephen and Matthias will give an introduction to XTable and demonstrate it in practice. They'll present OTF conversion with XTable in a data pipeline on Apache Airflow and how to run XTable in a background conversion mechanism.
