Laktory
An open-source DataOps and dataframe-centric ETL framework for building lakehouses. Use it standalone or extend your existing DABs setup with it.
Laktory is an all-in-one solution for defining both data transformations and Databricks resources. Imagine if Declarative Automation Bundles (DAB) supported any Databricks resources and offered a declarative approach to data transformations, that's essentially Laktory.
Deploy it standalone as your full Databricks DataOps platform, or add it alongside your existing DAB setup to manage pipeline definitions and the resources DAB doesn't cover.
This open-source framework streamlines the creation, deployment, and execution of data pipelines while adhering to essential DevOps practices such as version control, code reviews, and CI/CD integration. Powered by Narwhals, Laktory enables seamless transitions between Apache Spark, Polars, and other frameworks to perform data transformations reliably and at scale. Its modular and flexible design allows you to effortlessly combine SQL statements with DataFrame operations, reducing complexity and enhancing productivity.
Since Laktory pipelines are built on top of Narwhals, they can run in any environment that supports Python, from your local machine to a Kubernetes cluster. Pipelines can be orchestrated using tools like Apache Airflow or deployed directly as Databricks Jobs or Declarative Pipelines, offering both flexible and fully managed execution options.
But Laktory goes beyond data pipelines. It empowers you to define and deploy your entire Databricks data platform, from Unity Catalog and access grants to compute and quality monitoring. This empowers your data team to take full ownership of the solution, eliminating the need to juggle multiple technologies.
No more splitting ownership between Terraform for infrastructure and DAB for workflows. With Laktory, the team that builds the pipelines can own the stack end to end.
