An end-to-end operational data analytics pipeline: data flows from an OLTP database (Lakebase Postgres) through CDC replication into Unity Catalog, gets transformed through a medallion architecture (bronze/silver/gold layers), and is ready for dashboards and downstream consumers.
Components
- Unity Catalog Setup — configure Unity Catalog with external S3 storage for your destination catalog and schema.
- Create a Lakebase Instance — provision a managed Postgres project as the OLTP source.
- Lakebase Change Data Feed (CDF) — enable continuous replication from Lakebase tables to Unity Catalog Delta history tables.
- Medallion Architecture from CDC — build silver (current-state) and gold (analytical) layers from the CDC history tables using Lakeflow Declarative Pipelines.
