Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know about your Databricks implementation

Which use cases is Databricks suitable for?

Databricks is suitable for almost all modern data and AI scenarios. This includes building scalable data pipelines, analytical data processing, real-time streaming, machine learning models, and GenAI and LLM applications. With the Unity Catalog, data governance, authorization management, and collaborative data sharing can be managed centrally. Databricks combines data, models and workflows in a uniform lakehouse platform and thus forms the basis for data-driven products and business processes.

Can Databricks replace our data warehouse?

In many cases, Databricks can completely or partially replace a classic data warehouse. As a lakehouse platform, Databricks combines the openness and flexibility of a data lake with enterprise-level SQL performance. Organizations benefit from ACID-compliant delta tables, SQL queries on cost-effective cloud storage, a central governance layer, and a unified compute model. However, whether a complete replacement makes sense depends on the existing data landscape, BI tools, latency requirements and team skills. We analyse your situation and recommend a suitable target image.

Why is Databricks better than a classic data warehouse?

Databricks offers a significantly wider range of functions than a pure data warehouse. While classic warehouses are primarily optimized for BI workloads, Databricks also supports batch and streaming pipelines, data science & machine learning, generative AI and LLM workloads, open data formats without vendor lock-in. The Photon Engine and Delta Engine enable high performance for SQL workloads, while compute can be scaled in a resource-efficient and flexible way.
Companies that want to run BI analyses as well as ML models, data science or AI applications therefore benefit from a significantly more flexible and cost-effective approach.

Which cloud providers does Databricks support?

Databricks runs on Azure, AWS, and Google Cloud. With our Microsoft Partner status, Azure Databricks is often the best choice, but we also support other clouds. The choice is yours.
