Hi,
I am looking for a way to get usage statistics from Databricks (Data Science & Engineering and SQL persona).
For example:
I created a table. I want to know how many times a specific user queried that table.How many times a pipeline was trigge...
You can use System Tables, now available in Unity Catalog metastore, to create the views you described. https://docs.databricks.com/en/admin/system-tables/index.html
SQL serverless now use cache even after termination thanks to the remote cache. You can benefit from 1 min auto-termination when still utilizing cache benefits.
Databricks asset bundles, now in Public Preview, enable end-to-end data, analytics, and ML projects to be expressed as a collection of source files. This makes it simpler to apply data engineering best practices such as source control, code review, t...
Will a Databricks Asset Bunldes (DAB) implementation take place in the cloud (Browser - Workspace)?Personally, I work on a developer VM in a closed network where it is very difficult to install software (Databricks CLI) because it has to be requested...
I'm creating dashboard with multiple visualizations from a notebook.Whenever I add a new visualization, the default position in dashboard is top left which mess up all the format I did for previous graph. Is there a way to default add to the bottom o...
@shan_chandra I'm using Lakeview dashboard. In dbx notebook, there is Add to dashboard > button on the right of each visualization. It's super handy. Actually I have this issue solved.

Hello Raphael,Thank you for the update and for looking into the feature request. I appreciate your efforts in following up on this matter.If possible, could you please provide me with any updates or insights you receive from the Terraform team regard...
We have been evaluating Databricks SQL and its capability to be used as DW. We are using Unity catalog in our implementation.There seems to be a functionality mismatch between Azure and AWS versions as where table rename is supported on Azure side, i...

HiI’m new to data modelling so could use some help.I’m building a personal project using a fairly standard 3NF sales database as the source data. So far I have a pipeline that incrementally extracts data from the source system each day into a Raw sto...
Thank you.From a high level it makes sense. It's the details I'm a bit unclear on. So when a single pipeline runs (let's say today - 10/05/2024) for your architecture it might: Extract records from source system tables that have changed since last ti...
Hello,I'm wondering if there's a method or workaround to execute JDBC table queries in a similar manner to other cluster types. Currently, attempting to do so results in an error stating that only text-based files (such as JSON, Parquet, Delta, etc.)...
We have created a Unity Catalog instance on top of our Lakehouse (built entirely with Azure Databricks). We are using Power BI to develop and serve our analytics and reporting needs. I've granted the "Account Users" group the appropriate privileges f...
Thanks for explaining this! This doesn't do exactly what I was hoping—it doesn't block all access to the workspace. Users can still login and access their own workspace and run SQL queries, explore the catalog, etc. But they ARE blocked from accessin...
In relational data warehouse systems it was best practise to represent date values as YYYYMMDD integer type values in tables. Date comparison could be done easily without using date-functions and with low performance impact.Is this still the recomme...
Hi @DataFarmer I Databricks I will advise you to use date type instead of int, this will make your life much simpler while working on the date type data.
When trying to connect to a SQL warehouse using the JDBC connector with Spark the below error is thrown. Note that connecting directly to a cluster with similar connection parameters works without issue, the error only occurs with SQL Warehouses.py4j...
