InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
This independence from a catalog allows for path based reads and writes. This is handy when writing from Kafka directly to Delta Lake for the first layer of ingestion. You don’t need a catalog (or even Spark). https://github.com/delta-io/kafka-delta-ingest/tree/main/src
Project Nessie (https://projectnessie.org/) will be the catalog that eventually decouples Iceberg from Hive. At that point, I think it will be a no brainer to go Iceberg over Delta.
