PART 1: Architectural Patterns for Analytics

This section describes the evolution of data architecture patterns for analytics. It addresses the challenges posed by different architectural patterns and establishes a new paradigm, that is, the data lakehouse. An overview of the data lakehouse architecture is also provided, which includes coverage of the principles that govern the target architecture, the components that form the data lakehouse architecture, the rationale and need for those components, and the architectural principles adopted to make a data lake scalable and robust.

This section comprises the following chapters:

• Chapter 1, Introducing the Evolution of Data Analytics Patterns
• Chapter 2, The Data Lakehouse Architecture Overview
