Folks, I have been digesting some feedback on what we show on the home page itself.
While the blog explains the vision, it might be good to bubble up sub-areas that are more relevant to our users today. transactions, updates, deletes. So, i have raised a PR moving stuff around. Now we lead with - "Hudi brings transactions, record-level updates/deletes and change streams to data lakes" then explain the platform, in the next level of detail. https://github.com/apache/hudi/pull/3406 On Mon, Aug 2, 2021 at 9:39 AM Vinoth Chandar <vin...@apache.org> wrote: > Thanks!
