Question Title

* 13. Top Data and AI Achievement

Apache Iceberg emerges as defacto standard for open table formats - In June 2024, Databricks announced the acquisition of Tabular, the commercial venture behind Apache Iceberg, which signaled to the market that Iceberg had won the battle of the open table formats. This was a big win for open data and for customers’ ability to query data using whatever engines they wanted.

NIMs unveiled by Nvidia - In March 2024, Nvidia announced the launch of Nvidia Inference Microservices (NIM), which it touted as a standardized way to bundle everything a user needs to deploy a generative AI application, including AI models, integration code, into preconfigured Kubernetes Helm charts. The industry responded by building hundreds of pre-built NIM offerings.
