Analyzing and Comparing Lakehouse Storage Systems

Summary: Systematic comparative analysis of Delta Lake, Apache Hudi, and Apache Iceberg exposing design tradeoffs in metadata, transactions, compaction and read/write paths for lakehouse storage. Provides cross-system performance/feature evaluation across multiple axes and releases LHBench, an open benchmark for reproducible lakehouse design comparisons.
