Please do not discontinue Community Edition

Suresh_Ulhasnag — Sat, 03 Jan 2026 07:50:40 GMT

Hi,

A lot of Tutorials that I refer on YouTube (Most of them for 2025) still refer to community edition. Certain features in Community edition, especially related to Optimization do not appear in Free edition.

Please do not discontinue Community edition and continue it for at least 2026.

Regards,

Suresh Goswami.

It is still working, but I think it will be gone after the holidays.

Hi @Suresh_Ulhasnag , thanks for the feedback. Unfortunately we can no longer support Databricks Community Edition. Could you point us to the youtube tutorials that point to CE? We'd like to work with the creators to get them updated. Thanks!
