How to enable Delta live tables serverless in Databricks?

[nggianno]

I am trying to enable the Serverless mode in the Delta Live Tables, based on what the official Databricks channel YouTube video "Delta Live Tables A to Z: Best practices for Modern Data Pipelines".And I cannot find it in my UI. Could you help me with that? How is it possible to enable?

Are you on GCP by chance? If so, I don't think serverless options are available yet.

[nggianno]

No, I am in AWS.

The problem is that the "Serverless" checkbox does not appear in my UI Pipeline Settings. So, I do not know how to enable serverless given your instructions. Can you tell me why the button is not displayed or how to display it or how to enable DLT serverless with another way?

Serverless DLT pipelines are currently in PrPr (Private Preview). 
Thus, you will not see this checkbox if you are not part of this PrPr. 
To learn about enabling Serverless DLT pipelines, contact your Databricks account team.

I am facing the same issue. Is this still not available to the public?

It is generally available in supported regions and needs to be enabled by an account admin (if not auto-enabled): Enable serverless compute 

[Daan]

Hey Kols, thanks for the reply. I am the account admin and I had already serverless compute enabled and our platform is hosted on AWS eu-central-1. As far as I can tell from the documentation every requirement is met to enable serverless DLT pipelines.

It's available in your region. Only other requirement is that the workspace needs to have Unity Catalog enabled - is that the case as well?
Otherwise please contact your Databricks account team or open a support ticket.

Hey Kols,

Unity catalog is enabled as well, as you can see in the screenshot. To open a support ticket I need dedicated Databricks support which our company doesn't have.
