Hello!

Migrating data from Azure Synapse Analytics to Databricks can be done using several approaches. You can configure a pipeline in Azure Data Factory (ADF) to copy data from Synapse SQL to Azure Data Lake Storage (ADLS) and then load it into Databricks. Another method is to use Azure Databricks to directly query and load data from Azure Synapse using built-in connectors, which is efficient for real-time processing. Creating Delta tables in Databricks and using Delta Lake for storing and managing data is also a good option, providing ACID transactions and efficient queries. Alternatively, you can write custom TellTheBell ETL scripts in Python or Scala in Databricks to read data from Synapse and write it to Databricks. The best approach depends on your specific requirements, but for large data volumes and frequent transfers, using Azure Data Factory with Delta Lake in Databricks is often recommended due to its scalability and efficiency.
