Apache Hudi vs Project Nessie

Apache Hudi is a free, open-source data lakehouse platform that adds database capabilities to data lakes and supports incremental processing for low-latency analytics. It can update and delete records, with pluggable indexing for change-data-capture and streaming workloads. Transaction features include atomic writes, snapshot isolation, and non-blocking concurrency controls. Users can query historical table versions, roll back changes, and review commit history. Automated table services handle clustering, compaction, cleaning, file sizing, and indexing, while schema evolution and enforcement accommodate changing data. Listed integrations include Apache Spark, Apache Flink, Kafka, Debezium, Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, Azure Blob Storage, Trino, and dbt. Some integrations are read-only, so Spark or Flink may write Hudi tables for those systems to query. Downloads include source releases and Maven bundles, with PGP verification advised. Hudi relies on the security posture of its compute and storage environment.
