Load Data into the Lakehouse:
- Databricks provides tools and capabilities to make data migration to the lakehouse seamless. You can load data from diverse sources into your lakehouse.
- Consider migrating your existing Parquet data lake to Delta Lake, which offers improved reliability, performance, and schema evolution capabilities.
- Explore Lakehouse Federation to query data across different storage layers (Bronze, Silver, Gold) within your lakehouse.
