But is it truly revolutionary, or is it destined to repeat the pitfalls of past solutions like Hadoop? Danny authored a thought-provoking article comparing Iceberg to Hadoop , not on a purely technical level, but in terms of their hype cycles, implementation challenges, and the surrounding ecosystems.

Hadoop initially led the way with Big Data and distributed computing on-premise to finally land on Modern Data Stack — in the cloud — with a data warehouse at the center. In order to understand today's data engineering I think that this is important to at least know Hadoop concepts and context and computer science basics.
