Yes, it’s required. It’s how Databrics tracks and tags resources.The tags are used to identify the owner of clusters on the AWS side and Databricks uses the tag information internally as well.

Yes. We can convert an existing workspace to PrivateLink on E2.So you can have one workspace that's on PL and one that's not.Please contact your Databricks Representative and we can help you make this change.
