Respond to Airport Disruptions Using Lakehouse//RT

Description

Watch how Lakehouse//RT and Zerobus help airline operations teams act on live event data while seats are still open and connections can still be made. When lightning closes a ramp, delays ripple across flights, bags, and connections. This demo simulates a ramp closure at fictional carrier Lakehouse Air, where a network control app flags affected flights, at-risk connections, rebooking options, and hotel needs. Zerobus streams flight, baggage, and boarding events directly into Unity Catalog tables, with no messaging bus. Lakehouse//RT runs live joins on those tables for dashboards and historical analysis, handling 1,000 concurrent users (about 200 queries per second) plus an 8,000-query burst. Lakehouse//RT is in Beta; ask your account team to enable it. 🎯 What you’ll learn Deliver sub-second queries at high concurrency for live operational applications Stream real-time telemetry events directly into Unity Catalog tables using Zerobus Execute sub-second, multi-table joins on live event data during an operational hold Track at-risk bags, ripple effects, and rebooking needs Support concurrent users and query bursts across operations Serve live and historical analytics from one copy…
