Apache Hudi (Incubating) (pronounced Hoodie) stands for Hadoop Upserts Deletes and Incrementals. Hudi manages the storage of large analytical datasets on DFS (Cloud stores, HDFS or any Hadoop FileSystem compatible storage).

Features

Upsert support with fast, pluggable indexing
Atomically publish data with rollback support
Snapshot isolation between writer & queries
Savepoints for data recovery
Manages file sizes, layout using statistics
Async compaction of row & columnar data
Timeline metadata to track lineage

Hudi supports three types of queries:

Snapshot Query - Provides snapshot queries on real-time data, using a combination of columnar & row-based storage (e.g Parquet + Avro).
Incremental Query - Provides a change stream with records inserted or updated after a point in time.
Read Optimized Query - Provides excellent snapshot query performance via purely columnar storage (e.g. Parquet).
