Join discussions on data engineering best practices, architectures, and optimization strategies within the Databricks Community. Exchange insights and solutions with fellow data engineers.
Read: Reads (if needed) the latest available version of the table to identify which files need to be modified (that is, rewritten).
Write: Stages all the changes by writing new data files.
Validate and commit: Before committing the changes, checks whether the proposed changes conflict with any other changes that may have been concurrently committed since the snapshot that was read. If there are no conflicts, all the staged changes are committed as a new versioned snapshot, and the write operation succeeds. However, if there are conflicts, the write operation fails with a concurrent modification exception rather than corrupting the table as would happen with the write operation on a Parquet table.
Join a Regional User Group to connect with local Databricks users. Events will be happening in your city, and you wonโt want to miss the chance to attend and share knowledge.
If there isnโt a group near you, start one and help create a community that brings people together.
