It's finally here. The ability to slap a JSON array into a #Databricks Workflow and run things in parallel! But just how good is it? How well does it work? Well today I'm having a tinker! youtu.be/PByPvH_y5Ok

What did I do this morning? I did sound & lighting checks for doing a conference talk as a Muppet. Yep, that's my life now 😅

Everyone back from the break refreshed and ready for action? How about a little existential crisis to kick off the year - lets dive in to just how much of Data Engineering can be automated with even a basic bit of AI, that should be fun right? youtu.be/FBLrvoWu5H4

I can shout about getting rid of SCIM, shine a bright light on the beauty of MLFlow Tracing for Agent Frameworks, I can sing about a whole host of changes... but you're right. Export to Excel is the biggest news in #Databricks for Feb! Check it out! youtu.be/_UwFtnvR20M

You have data. Company B has data. Combined you could do amazing things, but you can't share your sensitive data... so what can you do? Databricks Clean Rooms does exactly this, giving you a collaborative space with full data protections - check it out! youtu.be/ZAAnGdJKurE
