Open Source Powers the Modern Data Stack

Lakehouses like Databricks’ Delta Lake are becoming the central brain for all data systems. But Lakehouses are only one component of the data stack. There are many building blocks required for tackling data needs, including data integrations, data transformation, data quality, observability, orchestration etc.

In this session, we will present how open source powers companies' approach to building a modern data stack. We will talk about technologies like Airbyte, Airflow, dbt, Preset, and how to connect them in order to build a customized and extensible data platform centered around Databricks.

How socat and UNIX Pipes Can Help Data Integration

Nearly every developer is familiar with creating a CLI. Containerized CLIs provide a flexible, cross-language standard with a low barrier to entry for open-source contributors. The ETL process can be reduced to two CLIs: one that reads data and one that writes data. While this interface is simple enough to implement from the contributor’s side, Kubernetes’ distributed nature means orchestrating data transfer between the CLIs on Kubernetes presents an unsolved problem.

This talk describes a novel approach to reliably orchestrate CLIs on Kubernetes for data integration. Through this lens, we go through the evaluation of strategies and describe the pros and cons of each architecture for horizontally scaling containerised data integration workflows on Kubernetes. We also cover the journey of implementing a TCP-based “process” abstraction over CLIs using socat and UNIX pipes. This same approach powers all of Airbyte’s Kubernetes deployments and helps sync TBs of data daily.
