Roadmap
Delta Lake is an open-source storage format that runs on top of existing data lakes. Delta Lake is compatible with processing engines like Apache Spark and provides benefits such as ACID transaction guarantees, schema enforcement, and scalable data handling.
The Delta Lake project aims to unlock the power of the Deltalake for as many users and projects as possible
by providing native low-level APIs aimed at developers and integrators, as well as a high-level operations
API that lets you query, inspect, and operate your Delta Lake with ease.

## Quick Start
The `deltalake` library aims to adopt patterns from other libraries in data processing,
so getting started should look familiar.
```py3
from deltalake import DeltaTable, write_deltalake
import pandas as pd
# write some data into a delta table
df = pd.DataFrame({"id": [1, 2], "value": ["foo", "boo"]})
write_deltalake("./data/delta", df)
# Load data from the delta table
dt = DeltaTable("./data/delta")
df2 = dt.to_pandas()
assert df.equals(df2)
```
The same table can also be loaded using the core Rust crate:
```rs
use deltalake::{open_table, DeltaTableError};
#[tokio::main]
async fn main() -> Result<(), DeltaTableError> {
// open the table written in python
let table = open_table("./data/delta").await?;
// show all active files in the table
let files: Vec<_> = table.get_file_uris()?.collect();
println!("{:?}", files);
Ok(())
}
```
You can also try Delta Lake docker at [DockerHub](https://go.delta.io/dockerhub) | [Docker Repo](https://go.delta.io/docker)

## Features
The following section outlines some core features like supported [storage backends](#cloud-integrations)
and [operations](#supported-operations) that can be performed against tables. The state of implementation
of features outlined in the Delta [protocol][protocol] is also [tracked](#protocol-support-level).
