In today’s rapidly evolving data landscape, organisations face increasing pressure to maintain control and sovereignty over their data. After a quick introduction to Apache Iceberg and Apache Polaris (Incubating), this session will dive into a real world use case demonstrating how these technologies can power a robust, governance focused data platform. We’ll explore strategies to secure access to data, discuss upcoming roadmap features like RBAC, FGAC, and ABAC, and show how to build custom extensions to tailor governance to your organisation’s needs.
