In the second blog of the Universal Data Distribution blog series, we explored how Cloudera DataFlow for the Public Cloud (CDF-PC) can help you implement use cases like data lakehouse and data warehouse ingest, cybersecurity, and log optimization, as well as IoT and streaming data collection. A key requirement for these use cases is the ability to not only actively pull data from source systems but to receive data that is being pushed from various sources to the central distribution service.
COVID-19 introduced an unprecedented level of volatility in world markets, and the shockwaves that arrived in its wake exposed a wide chasm between two main types of multinational organizations: Those with agile internal processes and those without.

Never before has data become so prevalent in everything we do. Sorting out the best way to make sense of incoming terabytes of data has turned into an extreme sport.

In recent years, the term “data lakehouse” was coined to describe this architectural pattern of tabular analytics over data in the data lake.
