Separating storage from compute has redefined the data landscape, and those who embrace open data formats will get ahead in 2025. As Brian Buxton, one of our Managing Consultant explains: "Open data formats allow teams to avoid vendor lock-in and select the best tool for every task — from lightweight solutions for quick insights to powerful engines for large-scale analysis." By separating storage from compute, companies can: ?? Query a single shared data source without duplicating datasets. ?? Minimize storage costs by pointing platforms to external data. ?? Scale operations efficiently with support for open formats like Apache Iceberg and Parquet, and as well as Delta Lake. Flexibility and cost efficiency are key — but strong governance ensures open data formats deliver on their promise without creating data sprawl!
