5 Minute Features - a new video series

I have spent the past couple of months building up a small hobby YouTube project where I run through Databricks Features in an easy to digest format.

I am for a very hands-on and demo heavy approach so you can actually see what is going on, and how things work in real life.

I would appreciate any kind of feedback on the videos, the format, as well as wishes for new features or topics to cover!
I imagine there will be loads of new topics to tackle on the other side of Summit - but I could always use more inspiration

You can check it out, drop a follow and all that YouTube stuff right here:

In this series I give 5 minute demonstrations of Databricks Features. This video covers ABAC with a brief overview of what the feature does, and how you can implement it through Governed Tags, Functions and Policies. If you want a deeper demo and a bit more theory, check out my conference session
