Hello Databricks community,

I am trying to connect to Azure SQL DB from Databricks free edition, however ran into below error-

[FAILED_JDBC.CONNECTION] Failed JDBC on the operation: Failed to connect to the database. SQLSTATE: HV000

I have tried adding the firewall rules by allowing the IPs from different ranges as searched in internet and also gave range from 0.0.0.0 to 255.255.255.255 as well. Enabled Allow Azure services as well, but still getting the same error.

However I am able to access the same Azure SQL DB from local VS code with same credentials.

Is there a cost for Databricks Workflow notifications or are they free?

MageshS — Mon, 20 Jul 2026 09:30:41 GMT

I couldn't find pricing information for Workflow/Job notifications anywhere in the Documentation or on the Pricing Page.

Is sending notifications for job run events (start, success, failure) via email, Slack, webhook, MS Teams, or PagerDuty a free feature, or is there some cost (DBU or otherwise) associated with it? Could someone confirm with an official source or doc reference? Thanks!

Discussion on Databricks Cost Caps and Genie Pricing Update

SantiNath_Dey — Tue, 30 Jun 2026 13:30:19 GMT

Hi Team,
With the upcoming changes to the Databricks Genie pricing model effective July 6, we would like to explore options for implementing cost controls across the entire Databricks environment.

Our primary objective is to establish the ability to monitor and manage costs at an individual user level, including:

Defining and enforcing per-user cost caps or budget thresholds.
Tracking and reporting user-level Databricks consumption and associated costs.
Generating proactive email notifications when users approach or exceed predefined cost thresholds.
Providing centralized visibility into overall platform usage and spending trends.
Could you please advise on the available approaches, best practices, and any native Databricks capabilities or integrations that support per-user cost monitoring, budget controls, and automated alerting?

Thanks,
Santi Nath Dey

Delta Shared catalog use cost allocation

PumpItUpper — Thu, 25 Jun 2026 14:00:37 GMT

Hi. I have the following scenario on AWS Databricks:

I have a catalog that I need to Delta Share to external systems (both other dbks accounts and other non-dbks systems).
All tables on this catalog are MANAGED type, with all the files sitting in the same S3 bucket.
This catalog sees really heavy use internally (inside our dbks account), and we expect heavy external use as well once we start sharing it.

My worry:
I understand that Delta Share doesn't incur extra cost on itself, but the queries from external systems against this catalog will trigger the GetObject action on the underlying bucket. Also, there will be network egress costs for each query.
How can I attribute the cost for the use of this catalog? I need to know which is internal use, and be able to identify each of the external systems individually so I can chargeback to the respective teams.

Thanks in advance!

Databricks Free Edition Suddenly Not Working and unable to login

Brahmareddy — Wed, 20 May 2026 03:57:14 GMT

Hi Databricks Community,

I have been using Databricks Free Edition for learning and practice, but suddenly it is not working as expected. I am unable to continue my notebooks and practice work.

I wanted to check if anyone else is facing a similar issue with Databricks Free Edition today.

A few things I would like to understand:

Is there any known outage or maintenance for Databricks Free Edition?

Are there any recent changes to login, workspace access, clusters, or notebook execution?

Is there any recommended troubleshooting step before raising a support request?

Databricks Free Edition is very useful for learners, students, and data professionals who want to practice SQL, PySpark, Delta Lake, and Lakehouse concepts. So I wanted to check with the community first and understand whether this is a temporary issue or something specific to my workspace.

Hi @Advika Any guidance from the community or Databricks team would be really helpful.

Thanks,
Brahma

Node.js on Databricks: where do i find information about available runtime(s) (versions)?

fehrin — Fri, 08 May 2026 08:42:25 GMT

Hi all,

Following https://www.databricks.com/sites/default/files/2026-02/hands-on-guide-apps-databricks.pdf i created a lakebase based app with React frontend. From the app overwiew page i see
Python 3.11.15; Node.js v22.16.0
as environment used.

There are informational web pages about available runtimes with versions going up to 17.3 (LTS), 18.2 (non LTS) in the cluster (classic?) case and versions going up to 5 in the serverless case (this 5 is what i generally use in my free edition).
None of this pages mention Node.js, so where can i find information about the available Python <-> Node versions on Databricks? And why am i stuck with Python 3.11, using version 5 i am up to Python 3.12 for the rest of my work (especially notebooks).

Thx for enlightment

P.S.

I found it interesting, that (in the meantime) i can work with Lakebase on the free edition.
