What’s Next for Data Warehouses? Lessons from Our Benchmark and Emerging Trends

​Join Estuary’s Dani and Ben Rogojan for a 30-minute deep dive into what our recent benchmark uncovered about modern data platforms, and what’s coming next.

​We’ll share key findings on performance ceilings, cost traps, and failure modes, and explore the major trends reshaping data warehouse architecture, including:

• ​Separation of Compute & Storage – How Snowflake Gen2, Databricks serverless, and open table formats like Iceberg are changing the game.

• ​Lakehouse Reality Check: What’s working for teams adopting Iceberg, schema evolution patterns, and lake-native pipelines.

• ​Warehouses as Integration Hubs: The convergence of real-time and batch, and why teams are rethinking ingestion.

• ​Flexibility Over Centralization: Moving beyond “one warehouse to rule them all.”

• ​Governance at the Core: Catalog-first strategies for decentralized stacks.

​Get a clear view of where the industry is headed and what it means for your data strategy.
