Only read access to databricks delta tables

Hi,
Is it possible to make delta shares work for a Matlab client (Just the way we share delta tables to a PowerBI workbench)?
We have Unity Catalog enabled and I wanted to explore more about data governance with aforesaid integration.

Wanted to discuss and hear experiences, if someone in this forum has already played around with sharing delta tables (not dbfs files) to Matlab. 🙂

Regards

Hello Kaniz,

Thanks for the pointers. I had the delta sharing option in mind but, I am not sure if Matlab is capable to handling delta format and views from databricks.

Delta sharing has been around for a couple of years now but, I've only seen direct dbfs-to-matlab integrations in the documentation.

Given the above challenges, I wanted to understand if anyone has faced similar challenges and if they could solve it.

Regards
