Built in the open
Vakamo is built on open standards and open source. Our governance engine — Lakekeeper — is Apache-2.0 licensed: inspectable, engine-agnostic and free to run anywhere.
Apache 2.0Lakekeeper — the open Iceberg REST catalog
Lakekeeper is an open-source Apache Iceberg REST catalog: one control plane for access control, credential vending and lineage across your lakehouse. Any Iceberg-compatible engine can connect — Spark, Trino, PyIceberg, Starburst and more — with no lock-in.
Governance you can inspect
The governance engine is open — read it, audit it, extend it. Trust comes from being able to see how access is decided, not from a promise.
Built on the Apache Iceberg REST standard and engine-agnostic — your catalog is never tied to a single vendor’s compute.
Roadmap, issues and design happen in the open, with contributors from across the data ecosystem.
We're building the Apache Iceberg community — across Europe
The Apache Iceberg Meetup Europe brings engineers, data teams and open-source contributors together in person, city by city — talks, live demos and the hallway conversations that move the lakehouse ecosystem forward.
Working on Iceberg, catalogs or lakehouse governance? Share it — speakers of every level are welcome.
