I am currently enrolled in data engineering boot camp. We go over various technologies azure , pyspark , airflow , Hadoop ,nosql,SQL, python. But not over something like databricks. I am in contact with lots of recent graduates who landed a job. Almost everyone recommend me to learn databricks. But I have no idea what it is and how to learn? There's not much good resources out there on YouTube or any other website.

I'd be glad to help you on your journey to learning Databricks! Whether you're a beginner or aiming to advance your skills, here's a comprehensive guide:
Foundations:
Solid understanding of core concepts: Begin with foundational knowledge in big data, data engineering, SQL, and Python (or another programming language supported by Databricks). These will serve as the building blocks for your Databricks exploration.
Familiarity with Apache Spark: As Databricks leverages Spark's distributed processing power, grasp the fundamentals of Spark's concepts like DataFrames, transformations, actions, and distributed computing paradigms. Explore resources like the Apache Spark website and Databricks' documentation.
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.
