OLake™ by Datazip

Agentic data engineering is coming fast. But most conversations around it are still too abstract. This Saturday, we’re facilitating a room where it gets real. Along with event host Altimate AI and community partners OLake™ by Datazip and The AI Collective, we’re bringing together a small group of engineers for a focused, no-fluff hackday in HSR. No panels. No passive listening. Just building. What makes this different: → You’re not “learning about AI” — you’re using it, deeply, for 8 hours → Real data engineering workflows: dbt, Airflow, Snowflake, Spark, Kafka → Direct access to tools like Altimate Code — an agentic harness for data workflows — + Claude APIs → A chance to explore how parts of your pipeline can become a bit more self-operating → Peer-level conversations (the kind you don’t get at large meetups) At OLake™ by Datazip and the Bangalore Data Engineering Community, we care about one thing, raising the bar of practical engineering in this ecosystem. This hackday is a meaningful step in that direction. 30 engineers. 1 day. High signal. Also, yes, there’s a Mac Mini on the table. But honestly, the real reward is what you walk away having built. If you’re someone who: •⁠ ⁠Has been working with data systems for 5+ years •⁠ ⁠Is curious about where AI fits into real workflows (not just demos) •⁠ ⁠Prefers hands-on over hype You’ll feel at home here. See you in the room.

We’re delighted to have OLake™ by Datazip join us as a Gold Sponsor at the Data Engineering Summit 2026. Datazip is a US/Bengaluru-based data infrastructure company building OLake, the fastest way to replicate databases, Kafka, and S3 data to Apache Iceberg or plain Parquet. OLake gives data teams a single platform to move, organize, and maintain their data lakehouse without stitching together fragile pipelines. Less plumbing, more insight. At the Data Engineering Summit, the focus is on real conversations around data systems, platforms, and infrastructure powering AI and analytics. Having OLake™ by Datazip with us adds to that ecosystem, bringing in experience and perspectives that matter to teams building at scale. Catch it all at Data Engineering Summit 2026, happening on May 14–15, 2026, in Bengaluru. Register here: https://lnkd.in/ggRDfw5z Nominations are now open for the Finkelstein Awards for Data Engineering Excellence 2026, recognising teams that have built impactful data-driven solutions; winners will be selected by an expert panel and announced at the summit.

Scaling data ingestion sounds easy… until it isn’t. In this clip, Nayan breaks down three very real challenges data teams hit when moving to a modern lakehouse: • ETL tools that don’t scale beyond GBs or TBs • A fragmented stack (ingestion, streaming, compaction… all separate) • Vendor lock-in that makes migration painful and expensive So how do you actually solve this? This is where OLake™ by Datazip comes in: • High-throughput ingestion using parallel chunking (optimized for large-scale data file sizes) • Built-in CDC so you don’t need separate pipelines for incremental updates • Open architecture works with any Apache Iceberg-compatible engine (Databricks, Trino Software Foundation, DuckDB, Snowflake, etc.) • Reliability features like 2PC + resumable full loads: no duplicate data, no restarting from scratch The goal isn’t just faster pipelines; it's correct, consistent, and query-ready data at scale. This webinar was all about going from raw database changes to fully queryable Iceberg tables, with real demos and deep dives into ingestion, CDC, and performance. Huge thanks to Nayan Joshi and Lester Martin 🥑 Martin for sharing practical insights on building scalable, open lakehouse architectures. Full webinar: link in the comments.
