We are using Databricks on AWS. The main reason is the existing data platform is on AWS, so we want to shift the processing part to AWS which will help in reducing the integration with different source systems.

That's good to know @Sanjeeb2024

I primarily use Databricks on Azure. The main reasons are its seamless integration with other Azure services like Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) and Azure Data Factory, which makes data ingestion, storage, and processing straightforward and efficient. Azure's strong support for enterprise security features, such as Azure Active Directory and Role-Based Access Control (RBAC), also aligns well with data governance requirements in enterprise projects.
