        What is Delta Lake?

        An open-source storage layer that brings ACID transactions to Apache Spark™ and big data workloads.

        What is Presto?

        Distributed SQL Query Engine for Big Data

        What is Apache Spark?

        Spark is a fast and general processing engine compatible with Hadoop data. It can run in Hadoop clusters through YARN or Spark's standalone mode, and it can process data in HDFS, HBase, Cassandra, Hive, and any Hadoop InputFormat. It is designed to perform both batch processing (similar to MapReduce) and new workloads like streaming, interactive queries, and machine learning.

        What are some alternatives to Delta Lake, Presto, and Apache Spark?
        Snowflake
        Snowflake eliminates the administration and management demands of traditional data warehouses and big data platforms. Snowflake is a true data warehouse as a service running on Amazon Web Services (AWS)—no infrastructure to manage and no knobs to turn.
        Splunk
        It provides the leading platform for Operational Intelligence. Customers use it to search, monitor, analyze and visualize machine data.
        Apache Flink
        Apache Flink is an open source system for fast and versatile data analytics in clusters. Flink supports batch and streaming analytics, in one system. Analytical programs can be written in concise and elegant APIs in Java and Scala.
        Amazon Athena
        Amazon Athena is an interactive query service that makes it easy to analyze data in Amazon S3 using standard SQL. Athena is serverless, so there is no infrastructure to manage, and you pay only for the queries that you run.
        Apache Hive
        Hive facilitates reading, writing, and managing large datasets residing in distributed storage using SQL. Structure can be projected onto data already in storage.
