Looks like pg as a replacement for databricks sql, which is already a query engine for datalakes. It's not a lakehouse, but it calls itself one. Seems like a cool and useful project, but the name is problematic.
- retakeming 2y agopg_house just wasn't as catchy! In all seriousness though, I see your point. While it's true that we don't provide the storage or table format, our belief is that companies actually want to own the data in their S3. We called it pg_lakehouse because it's the missing glue for companies already using Postgres + S3 + Delta Lake/Iceberg to have a lakehouse without new infrastructure.
