The Fifth Elephant 2026 Annual Conference

Abstract: In this hands-on workshop, attendees will build a Streaming Lakehouse using Apache Fluss and Apache Iceberg. Learn to ingest real-time streams, store them in Fluss tables, and transparently tier data into Iceberg for long-term analytics. Through guided exercises, you’ll define Flink SQL pipelines, enable Fluss tiering to Iceberg, and run real-time and historical queries. By the end, you’ll understand how Fluss and Iceberg integrate to unify streaming and analytical workloads in a single lakehouse pattern, delivering both freshness and scalability. Attendees will leverage Flink SQL to build the data pipeline and integrations.
