We know that Databricks with VNET injection (our own VNET) allows is to connect to blob storage/ ADLS Gen2 over private endpoints and peering. This is what we typically do.

  • We have a client who created Databricks with EnableNoPublicIP=No (secure cluster connectivity) and VnetInjection=No. So it’s using a managed VNET in the Databricks managed resource group and expose with public IP. We’re wondering if we still can make it connect to blob storage/ ADLS Gen2 over private endpoints. Or do we need to delete and recreate the Databricks workspace with VNET injection?
  • We want use Oauth2 with Service Principal with Storage Blob Data Contributor as role set on the blob storage/ ADLS Gen2.
  • We want to mount in Workspace with Service Principal credentials
  • In customer Workspace, UC is not activated, no possibility via UC access connector.
  • So basically my question is can we use this workspace setup EnableNoPublicIP=No and VnetInjection=No to access storage with private endpoint use mounting?
