I couldn't find it clearly explained anywhere, so hope sb here shed some light on that.Few questions:1) Where does delta tables are stored? Docs say: "Delta Lake uses versioned Parquet files to store your data in your cloud storage"So where exactly i...

There are mechanisms (like DMS) to get data from RDS to delta lake and store the data in parquet format, but is it possible to reverse of this in AWS?I want to send data from data lake to MySQL RDS tables in batch mode.And the next step is to send th...

@Hubert Dudek​ , I'll add that sometimes, just running:GENERATE symlink_format_manifest FOR TABLE schema.tablesolves it, but, how can the symlink get broken?Thanks!
Would like a deeper dive/explanation into the difference. When I write to a table with the following code:spark_df.write.mode("overwrite").saveAsTable("db.table")The table is created and can be viewed in the Data tab. It can also be found in some DBF...
Tables in spark, delta lake-backed or not are basically just semantic views on top of the actual data.On Databricks, the data itself is stored in DBFS, which is an abstraction layer on top of the actual storage (like S3, ADLS etct). this can be parq...

Can anyone tell me how I can access the customer_t1 dataset that is referenced in the book "Delta Lake - The Definitive Guide "? I am trying to follow along with one of the examples.
Some files are visualized here https://github.com/vinijaiswal/delta_time_travel/blob/main/Delta%20Time%20Travel.ipynb but it is quite strange that there is no source in repository. I think only one way is to write to Vini Jaiswal on github.

Delta RUST API seems a good option to query delta table without spinning up spark cluster so I am trying out this - https://databricks.com/blog/2020/12/22/natively-query-your-delta-lake-with-scala-java-and-python.html using Python app"Read...
Hi everyone.
I am trying to learn the keyword OPTIMIZE from this blog using scala: https://docs.databricks.com/delta/optimizations/optimization-examples.html#delta-lake-on-databricks-optimizations-scala-notebook.
But my local spark seems not able t...
Hi Jigao,
OPTIMIZE isn't in the open source delta API, so won't run on your local Spark instance - https://docs.delta.io/latest/api/scala/io/delta/tables/index.html?search=optimize
