Local Delta Lake instance with advanced features

Question

Is it possible to deploy a Delta Lake instance locally (i.e., using delta-io) with the advanced features such as Z-ordering or Bloom filters?

As far as I have seen, most of these features are only available through Delta Lake on Databricks via the dbr cli. None of these features are mentioned in the docs of the OSS version.

Answer 1

Unfortunately it's not possible - these features are Databricks only as of right now.

Update on 03.02.2022: Just published roadmap for H1 2022 includes implementation of some of the advanced features into the open source version

Update July 2022: Delta 2.0.0 includes most of the advanced features.
