Databricks Fundamentals

This course teaches data analysts how to design, build, publish, and operate AI/BI Dashboards in Databricks. AI/BI Dashboards combine governed Unity Catalog data with interactive visualizations, filters, and Genie integration so business users can explore answers without writing code.

The course follows a single end-to-end build. You start with source tables in Unity Catalog and finish with a published, monitored multi-page dashboard. Along the way you learn how dashboards fit into the broader Databricks AI/BI product family and where Genie, datasets, visualizations, and filters each fit in the workflow.

The content covers:

• AI/BI Dashboard fundamentals and how they relate to Genie and the rest of the Databricks platform.

• Exploring source data in Unity Catalog and designing reusable dashboard datasets with SQL.

• Authoring visualizations (KPIs, trends, breakdowns) and laying out a clean multi-page dashboard.

• Using Genie Code to draft SQL, charts, and filters from natural language prompts.

• Adding filters to make dashboards interactive and responsive to viewer questions.

• Publishing, sharing, and managing permissions so the right people can view and edit the dashboard.

• Running the dashboard in production with scheduled refresh, caching, and usage monitoring.

In this course, you will learn how to design, implement, and govern catalog structures and large-scale data organization on the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform. It offers a comprehensive view of Unity Catalog as the centralized governance layer for an enterprise lakehouse. Divided into five modules, it begins by placing Unity Catalog within the cloud deployment model — covering the Account Console, metastore creation, and the administrator role hierarchy. You will then translate organizational topology (business units, regions, and dev/QA/prod environments) into a scalable catalog and schema design using naming conventions, ownership patterns, and MANAGE delegation. The course then covers secure storage integration with storage credentials, external locations, the managed-storage hierarchy, managed versus external tables, and UC Volumes for non-tabular data. Next, you will apply access patterns and isolation strategies — the three-level GRANT chain, workspace-catalog binding, and schema-level Attribute-Based Access Control (ABAC) policies — to enforce fine-grained data protection at scale. Finally, the course closes with best practices for catalog design, automation, least-privilege permissions, and group-based access management.
