Overview
Data lakehouses provide the benefits of both data lakes, which store vast amounts of raw data, with data warehouses, which store organized and structured data. Essentially, they combine the flexibility, scalability, and low-cost storage of a data lake with the data management features and structure of a data warehouse. By merging these into a single system, data lakehouse architecture provides access to complete and up-to-date data without the need to move between multiple systems. This promotes speed, flexibility, and efficiency within an organization, improves governance, and reduces redundancy by providing a multi-purpose storage platform that can handle any type of data.
