In which of the following file formats is data from Delta Lake tables primarily stored?

Delta Lake is an open source project that provides ACID transactions, time travel, and other features on top of Apache Parquet, a columnar file format that is widely used for big data analytics. Delta Lake uses versioned Parquet files to store your data in your cloud storage, along with JSON files as transaction logs and checkpoint files to track the changes and ensure data integrity. Delta Lake is compatible with any Apache Hive compatible file format, such as CSV, JSON, or AVRO, but it primarily stores data as Parquet files for better performance and compression. References: How to Create Delta Lake tables, 5 reasons to choose Delta Lake format (on Databricks), Parquet vs Delta format in Azure Data Lake Gen 2 store, What is Delta Lake? - Azure Databricks, Lakehouse and Delta tables - Microsoft Fabric
