Introducing Dr. Lakehouse

Nikola Ilic has a new tool:

When I was young, I used to watch Dr House. If you’ve never seen it: a brilliant, grumpy doctor and his team get the cases nobody else can solve, and the patients almost never tell the truth. “Everybody lies”, says House, so he stops listening to what the patients say and looks at the evidence instead. And, of course, it’s never lupus.

Lakehouse tables are not that different. Your pipelines are green, your notebooks finish without errors, and every table tells you it’s perfectly fine. Everybody lies! And in Fabric, it’s never lupus – it’s (almost) always small files

There was one episode where they played on the “It’s lupis!” meme and it really looked like it was lupus. But even then, it wasn’t lupus.
