Power of Genie

[suryaprayaga]

Folks, I must admit, at the beginning I was apprehensive of using Genie for almost anything. Now it solves almost anything that I want to code on Databricks. I was more fascinated with it when I learnt that our customer (who is one of the largest Telecom Providers) is currently using Genie for building his entire Data Sciences pipeline.

Kudos to the Genie and Databricks.

Surya, good to read this, and I get the initial hesitation. We had the same reaction on our side a year ago.

What changed the picture for us wasn't Genie getting smarter on its own, it was what we put around it. Once we added clear instructions per space, exposed a few Unity Catalog SQL functions as trusted assets for the calculations that can't be wrong (revenue, churn, anything finance signs off), and ran benchmarks before opening it to business users, the accuracy went from "impressive demo" to something we can defend in a steering committee. Agent mode with multi-step reasoning helped a lot with the messier questions too.

I'm curious about the telecom case though. How are they using it for the data science pipeline itself?

Thanks for sharing.

Dear Thomaz,

Thank you for your kind reply and yes Genie has solved many complex problems we work with our customers with. When I said our customers are using it in their Data Science pipeline, I meant using Genie to write codes to build Propensity Models and creating DABs using Genie.

It really made their lives easier and they are able to efficiently build models with higher accuracies. 

Is there a way where we can share these customer success stories on this forum (ofcourse without sharing the names of the customers) but only the success stories?

My primary intention is to become a Databricks Champion eventually so any steps that contribute to this would certainly help.
