What does a real Databricks App look like in production? In this session, we walk through an internal tool we use every day: an agentic Lakeflow generation system built entirely on the Databricks platform. Starting from raw Unity Catalog tables, the app uses foundational models orchestrated in a LangGraph loop to profile data, design pipelines, validate transformations, and generate fully deployable Lakeflow artefacts from Silver through to Gold.We’ll show how application state, specifications, and user preferences are managed in Lakebase, enabling a seamless, iterative build experience inside Databricks. Forget the quick toy POC Apps you've been seeing. This is a practical blueprint for building intelligent, stateful data applications natively on the Lakehouse.
