About this event

What You'll Learn 📝

At Zello, managing over 500 million daily events across multiple data platforms came with significant cost and complexity. By leveraging open table formats with Iceberg—managed externally in Snowflake and integrated across systems—the team built a unified source of truth that eliminated 5 TB of monthly data duplication and streamlined workflows. In this session, Nikita will share how he integrated Iceberg into their pipeline, automated metadata refreshes, and incorporated dbt — along with key lessons learned and what’s ahead for multi-engine analytics at Zello.
