"Unlocking Insights - Databricks : Unified Lakehouse Platform for Modern Data Intelligence"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Databricks Data Intelligence Platform?

Mainly 60-70% of day-day actviities goes with Databricks DLT , Autoloader, databricks Workflows usage for Building unified pipelines

Also I use for creating the MlOps MlFlow Model serving , feature Store Online store tables for Model deployments, evaualtion & use the Lakeouse flow monitoring. Also used Mosiac AI gateway

Soon looking forward of using the Databricks serverless in engineering notebook pipelines also apart from DLT

DB-SQL with Delta Photon Optimization and the lIquid clustering solves the Optimize/Z-order manual work of optimizations

Also recently migrated coupled oh Hive Metastore of various Line of busienss for Civil quants & Risk applications into Unity Catalog Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Databricks Data Intelligence Platform?

Currently not much, slowly everything getting addressed on improvements with Public releases starting from enahnced workflows , Genie, Databricks AI assitant & so

Still need to more fine tune the AI assitants to understand the previous error history happened in that cluster & provide suggestions not only in code syntax but also provide alternate options to permanently solve & write teh code in optmized ways without asking in Prompts

Vector search need more improvemnt with more precise reterievals to provide context for DBR models & more embedding models need to be served from AI gateway Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Databricks Data Intelligence Platform solving and how is that benefiting you?

Used for Migrating Hive Metastore to Unity Catalog ensures better data governance and accessibility across various lines of business, enhancing data management and compliance. Integrated also Snowflake catalog to Unity catalog as external catalog as part of POC tetsing

Lakehouse flow monitoring provides insights into data processes, allowing for timely detection and resolution of issue, used DLT for data quality expectation for providing insights

For analysis DB-SQL leveraging Delta and Photon optimization, you minimize manual optimization efforts and improve query performance through automatic Z-ordering and clustering.

For model building Utilizing MLFlow for model serving and feature store tables allows for smoother model deployment and evaluation, enhancing the overall machine learning lifecycle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
