One of the key challenges is limiting the number of updates—especially when there are many consecutive inserts (e.g., from Zerobus). The AT MOST EVERY option in Databricks pipeline objects helps batch frequent events into controlled updates, reducing...
If any dependencies of your Materialized View or Streaming Table change, an update can be triggered automatically. #databricks
