lakeFS Acquires DVC, Uniting Data Version Control Pioneers to Accelerate AI-Ready Data
Traditional RAG often feels like a black box. Vector search is powerful, but hard to reason about, and that makes AI agent knowledge versioning nearly impossible: you can’t track which version of your data an agent was served, who changed it, or why. Emerging standards such as Open Knowledge Format (OKF) aim to change that. […]
In this post we build something most agent demos skip: an agent that does real work on real data, inside guardrails it can’t escape. The agent turns a messy folder of receipts and invoices into a clean, validated ledger, and it does it on a lakeFS branch mounted as an ordinary filesystem inside an E2B
Based on my presentation at PyData Global 2025. My colleague Yoav recently wrote about why reproducibility matters so much in healthcare AI and how data version control addresses the gap. This post is a follow up to that, with an overview of how to incorporate data version control into your existing ML workflow to address
Based on my presentation at PyData Global 2025 When we – engineers – hear the word “compliance,” we tend to roll our eyes. We want to build features, not fill out forms. But here’s good news: the exact same tools that help you debug your code can also keep you out of trouble. In this
Many lakeFS customers in the aerospace, automotive, healthcare & life sciences, and manufacturing industries also are heavy users of MATLAB. lakeFS solves a range of data ops challenges for these organizations by serving as a “control plane” for AI-ready data – versioning complex data pipelines, tracking metadata and lineage, and enabling team collaboration through git-like
lakeFS Enterprise offers a fully standards-compliant implementation of the Apache Iceberg REST Catalog, enabling Git-style version control for structured data at scale. This integration allows teams to use Iceberg-compatible tools like Spark, Trino, and PyIceberg without any vendor lock-in or proprietary formats. By treating Iceberg tables as versioned entities within lakeFS repositories and branches, users
Today’s organizations don’t just use a single data storage solution – they operate across on-prem servers, multiple cloud providers, and hybrid environments. This distributed approach has become necessary, but it comes with significant costs: teams struggle with siloed tools, duplicated processes, and an endless cycle of environment management that diverts focus from delivering actual value.
Introduction Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) is an effective way to minimize the risk of data breaches by ensuring users only have access to the data and systems necessary for their job roles. Here’s how you can use RBAC to avoid data breaches: 1. Principle of Least Privilege (PoLP) 2. Define Clear Roles and Responsibilities 3.
What is lakeFS Enterprise? lakeFS Enterprise is a commercially-supported version of lakeFS, offering additional features and functionalities that meet the needs of organizations from a production-grade system. Why did we build lakeFS Enterprise? lakeFS Enterprise was built for organizations that require the support, security standards and features required of a production-grade system and are not
In modern software development, Pull Requests (PRs) are a fundamental tool for collaborating on code. They allow teams to review, discuss, and merge changes in a controlled and transparent way. But what if you could apply that same concept to data? At lakeFS, we’re excited to introduce Pull Requests for data — a new feature
Promoting ETL code for production is a straightforward process. We have our code – usually stored in Git – and want to build and test it. We can check out the code, write changes, and commit them. Once we’re ready to promote our ETL into production, we run a pull request that might run automated
Once you start using lakeFS, the files on your object store will form a new representation. The names and paths of the files on the object store will no longer look the same. This article provides a high-level overview of the lakeFS file representation to help you understand the lakeFS file representation and how it
