In what is believed to be its sixth acquisition, Databricks bought Tabular, a data-management system used by open source AI, for over $1 billion. [21] In March 2023, in response to the popularity of OpenAI's ChatGPT, the company introduced an open-source language model, named Dolly after Dolly the sheep, that allowed developers to create chatbots.
Delta encoding is a way of storing or transmitting data in the form of differences (deltas) between sequential data rather than complete files; more generally this is known as data differencing. Delta encoding is sometimes called delta compression, particularly where archival histories of changes are required (e.g., in revision control software).
In 2013 Zaharia was one of the co-founders of Databricks where he is chief technology officer. [3] He joined the faculty of MIT in 2015, and then became an assistant professor of computer science at Stanford University in 2016.

Bitemporal modeling is a specific case of temporal database information modeling technique designed to handle historical data along two different timelines. [1] This makes it possible to rewind the information to "as it actually was" in combination with "as it was recorded" at some point in time.

Flow of data through the processing and serving layers of a generic lambda architecture. Lambda architecture is a data-processing architecture designed to handle massive quantities of data by taking advantage of both batch and stream-processing methods.
It is called the delta function because it is a continuous analogue of the Kronecker delta function, which is usually defined on a discrete domain and takes values 0 and 1. The mathematical rigor of the delta function was disputed until Laurent Schwartz developed the theory of distributions, where it is defined as a linear form acting on functions.
In the fields of databases and transaction processing (transaction management), a schedule (or history) of a system is an abstract model to describe the order of executions in a set of transactions running in the system.
