This tutorial aims to give you a fast start with lakeFS and use its git-like terminology in Spark. It covers the following:

  1. Quick start to install lakeFS using Docker Compose.
  2. How to create a repository, add files to it, create a branch and make changes to the repository using spark jobs.
  3. How to review changes before exposing them to consumers by merging to master.

This simple flow gives a sneak peak to how seamless and easy it is to make changes to data using lakeFS. Once you get the value of a resilient data flow, you can map it to many use cases within your data architecture from validating writes of raw data, to providing a safety net to your ETL pipelines or your ML (or other algorithmic logic) pipelines. You can pull the trigger, your master data lake is safe.
