A data architecture pattern to maximize the value of the Lakehouse
One of Lakehouse's outstanding achievements is the ability to combine workloads for modern use cases, such as traditional BI, machine learning & AI...
The Databricks team has been working hard to recreate content and enhance the experience as we transition all our events to a virtual experience. And we’ve learned a thing or two about what you want to learn: integrating Databricks with AWS services. So we’re excited to present our Cloud Data Lake Dev Day Workshop in partnership with AWS and Onica.
Organizations want to leverage the wealth of data accumulated in their data lake for deep analytics insights. However, most organizations struggle with preparing data for analytics and automating data pipelines to leverage new data as data lakes are constantly updated. Making the shift to automated data pipelines can be challenging, but it’s become more urgent as the COVID-19 pandemic accelerates the move to a completely virtual workforce and collaborative problem solving.
Learn how to move from manual management of data pipelines to seamless automation in this collaborative workshop with experienced partners and customers to pave the way. Join us Thursday, August 27, at 9:00 AM PDT to experience a deep dive into the technology that makes up a modern cloud-based data and analytics platform. The sessions will include live chat interactions with our system architects to answer all your questions.
