Summary
In this episode, Viktor Kessler shares his journey and insights from his extensive experience in data management—from building risk management systems and data warehouses to working as a solutions architect at MongoDB and Dremio, and now co-founding a startup.
Initially exploring data mesh concepts, Viktor explains how real-world challenges—such as the disconnect between technical data models and business needs, inconsistent definitions across departments, and the difficulty in managing actionable metadata—led him and his co-founder to pivot toward building a lake house solution.
His startup is developing Lakekeeper, an open source REST catalog for Apache Iceberg, which aims to bridge the gap between decentralized data production and centralized metadata management.
The conversation also delves into the evolution of data catalogs, the necessity for self-service analytics, and how creating consumption-ready data products can transform data functions from cost centers into profit centers.
Finally, Viktor outlines ways for interested listeners to get involved with the Lakekeeper community through GitHub, upcoming meetups, and a dedicated Discord channel.
