| 18 | +EDB delivers Analytics capabilities for Postgres, enabling you to run analytical queries over large datasets and more. |
| 19 | +And EDB Analytics lets you do it all in the Postgres ecosystem wherever you need it. |
| 20 | + |
| 21 | +## Concepts |
| 22 | + |
| 23 | +- **Why?**: The need for analytics in Postgres arises from the growing demand for data-driven decision-making and the need to analyze large datasets efficiently. |
| 24 | +- **Analytics Engine**: A vectorized SQL query engine that executes analytical queries over columnar data in object storage, built on Apache DataFusion and optimized for performance. |
| 25 | +- **Lakehouse**: A data architecture that combines the best of data lakes and data warehouses, allowing you to store and analyze data in a single platform. |
| 26 | +- **Storage locations**: The physical or logical locations where data is stored, such as S3 buckets or on-premises storage systems. |
| 27 | +- **Catalog**: A metadata repository that stores information about the data stored in a Lakehouse, including table definitions, schemas, and data locations. |
| 28 | +- **Tiered Tables**: A feature of EDB Postgres Distributed (PGD) that allows you to store data in different storage locations based on its usage patterns, optimizing performance and cost. |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +## Use cases |
| 31 | + |
| 32 | +- *Read-only analytics without a Catalog* |
| 33 | + - "I need to run analytical queries over S3 delta tables and I want to use Postgres" |
| 34 | + - "I need to run analytical queries over Iceberg data and I want to use Postgres" |
| 35 | +- *Read-write analytics without a Catalog* |
| 36 | + - "I need to offload data to S3 while keeping it available for analytics" |
| 37 | + - "I need to offload tables data to S3 while keeping it available for queries and analytics" |
| 38 | +- *Read-write analytics with a Catalog* |
| 39 | + - "I want to read and write data to a Catalog" |
| 40 | +- *Lakehouse read-only analytics* |
| 41 | + - "I need a Managed Lakehouse to read and analyze data stored as Delta Tables, Iceberg or a Catalog" |

54 | 82 | it supports querying "Delta Tables" stored according to the Delta Lake protocol. |

56 | | -## Lakehouse Sync |
57 | | - |
58 | | -You can sync your own data from tables in transactional sources (initially, EDB |
59 | | -Postgres® AI Cloud Service databases) into Lakehouse Tables in Storage Locations |
60 | | -(initially, managed locations in S3 object storage). |
61 | | - |
62 | | -## Fully managed service |
63 | | - |
64 | | -You can launch Postgres Lakehouse nodes using the EDB Postgres AI Cloud |
65 | | -Service (formerly EDB BigAnimal). Point a Lakehouse node at a storage bucket |
66 | | -with some Delta Tables in it, and get results of analytical (OLAP) queries in |
67 | | -less time than if you queried the same data in a transactional Postgres database. |
68 | | - |
69 | | -Postgres Lakehouse nodes are available now for customers using |
70 | | -EDB Postgres AI - Hosted environments on AWS, and will be rolling out |
71 | | -to additional cloud environments soon. |
