Tableflow: Represent Kafka topics as Apache Iceberg or Delta Lake tables in a few clicks
Tableflow - https://www.confluent.io/product/tableflow/
Tableflow represents Kafka topics and associate schemas as open-table formats such as Apache Iceberg®(Generally Available) or Delta Lake (Early Access) in a few clicks to feed any data lake, warehouse, or analytics engine. It removes the need for complex, costly and error-prone data pipelines that are currently being used to feed streaming data to data lakes while delivering strong read performance and automated data maintenance. Customers can also bring their own storage ensuring flexibility, cost savings, and security.
Tableflow integrates with Iceberg and Delta Lake catalogs such as AWS Glue, Databricks Unity (coming soon), Snowflake Open Catalog while offering a built-in Iceberg REST Catalog. These integrations streamline access for analytical engines such as Athena, EMR, RedShift, SageMaker, Databricks and Snowflake. Additionally, Tableflow’s Iceberg and Delta tables are also accessible by leading data lake and warehouse solutions such as Dremio, Imply, Onehouse, and Starburst and OSS compatible technologies such as Spark, Flink and Trino.
