Databricks Serverless best practices

Phani1 — Thu, 20 Mar 2025 16:46:52 GMT

Hi All,

We are configuring a Databricks serverless that adjusts according to the workload type,
like choosing different cluster sizes such as extra small ,small ,large etc, and auto scale option.
We're also looking at the average time it takes to complete workloads to decide when to terminate the system(auto stop option after minutes of inactivity).
Additionally, we will use tags to track the individual costs associated with the serverless setup. Could you recommend some effective strategies for implementing serverless architecture to make the most of it and reduce costs or usage?

Regards,

Phani
