Scaling Real-Time Analytics on Iceberg: Introducing Project Antalya, Alkin Tezuysal #FOSSASIA 2026

Modern analytics platforms must balance real-time performance, scalability, and cost efficiency. This talk introduces Project Antalya, Altinity’s open source extension for ClickHouse that combines Apache Iceberg storage with a compute-storage separation architecture for high-performance analytics at scale. Learn how Antalya leverages shared Iceberg storage, vector servers, and distributed compute clusters to deliver fast analytical queries while reducing infrastructure costs. We’ll explore the system architecture, query execution model, caching strategies, and compatibility with existing ClickHouse workloads. The session also includes practical guidance for deploying Antalya with Docker and Kubernetes, along with insights into future developments such as write support, indexing, and community contributions. Perfect for data engineers, platform teams, and architects building modern lakehouse and real-time analytics platforms.
