Business Software for Apache Iceberg

Daft is an advanced framework designed for ETL, analytics, and machine learning/artificial intelligence at scale, providing an intuitive Python dataframe API that surpasses Spark in both performance and user-friendliness. It integrates seamlessly with your ML/AI infrastructure through efficient zero-copy connections to essential Python libraries like Pytorch and Ray, and it enables the allocation of GPUs for model execution. Operating on a lightweight multithreaded backend, Daft starts by running locally, but when the capabilities of your machine are exceeded, it effortlessly transitions to an out-of-core setup on a distributed cluster. Additionally, Daft supports User-Defined Functions (UDFs) in columns, enabling the execution of intricate expressions and operations on Python objects with the necessary flexibility for advanced ML/AI tasks. Its ability to scale and adapt makes it a versatile choice for data processing and analysis in various environments.

Cazpian is a modern data platform built to help organizations manage and analyze data across open lakehouse ecosystems. The platform unifies governance, compute workloads, data catalogs, and AI-powered insights within a single environment. Cazpian enables data teams to connect multiple data sources such as object storage systems, Iceberg tables, and traditional relational databases without requiring data movement. Through its unified SQL interface, users can query and analyze datasets from different sources while maintaining consistent security policies and governance rules. The platform includes a compute workbench that supports SQL queries, code notebooks, job scheduling, and performance optimization tools. Cazpian also offers Iceberg automation capabilities that handle tasks such as compaction, snapshot management, and maintenance scheduling. AI Studio provides AI agents that deliver evidence-backed answers by combining queries with document-based knowledge sources. The platform also supports the creation of governed data products that can be discovered and reused across teams. With built-in role-based access control and policy management, organizations can ensure secure access to their data assets. By combining data infrastructure, analytics tools, and AI capabilities, Cazpian helps teams build scalable and well-governed analytics environments.

Dremio provides lightning-fast queries as well as a self-service semantic layer directly to your data lake storage. No data moving to proprietary data warehouses, and no cubes, aggregation tables, or extracts. Data architects have flexibility and control, while data consumers have self-service. Apache Arrow and Dremio technologies such as Data Reflections, Columnar Cloud Cache(C3), and Predictive Pipelining combine to make it easy to query your data lake storage. An abstraction layer allows IT to apply security and business meaning while allowing analysts and data scientists access data to explore it and create new virtual datasets. Dremio's semantic layers is an integrated searchable catalog that indexes all your metadata so business users can make sense of your data. The semantic layer is made up of virtual datasets and spaces, which are all searchable and indexed.
