Apache Iceberg and Hex
May 15, 2023

Summary
This post details the integration of Hex with Apache Iceberg, an open-source table format for massive datasets. It explains how Hex can query Iceberg tables directly (using engines like Dremio as an example) and build interactive reports on top of this data, enabling collaboration on data engineering, data science, and machine learning tasks. The post highlights Iceberg's benefits such as flexible schema management, versioning, time travel, and multi-engine access, and positions Hex as a modern, collaborative interface for working with this data.
