Unity Catalog support for Apache Iceberg™ brings open, interoperable table formats to the heart of the Databricks Lakehouse. In this session, we’ll introduce new capabilities that allow you to write Iceberg tables from any REST-compatible engine, apply fine-grained governance across all data, and unify access to external Iceberg catalogs like AWS Glue, Hive Metastore, and Snowflake Horizon. Learn how Databricks is eliminating data silos, simplifying performance with Predictive Optimization, and advancing a truly open lakehouse architecture with Delta and Iceberg side by side.
