Apache Lakehouse Community Debates Format Boundaries, Ships Releases
The Apache lakehouse community generated 327 messages across six mailing lists this week, debating format boundaries and shipping releases. Iceberg contributors pushed to deprecate equality deletes in V4, while Parquet voted on a new floating point encoding. Arrow released version 25.0.0 across all supported languages, and DataFusion welcomed a new committer.
