Dear all
do we have a general recommendation for the virtual machine type to be used for different operations in Azure Databricks? we are looking for the below -
1. VACUUM 2. OPTIMIZE 3. ANALYZE STATS 4. DESCRIBE TABLE HISTORY
I understood at a high level from the documentation that since VACUUM lists the files first which is a CPU intensive operation, it is advised to go for F series etc.
Appreciate if we can have the recommendation with some rationale. Thanks
