Get Started with Databricks for Machine Learning
In this course, you will develop the foundational skills needed to use the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform for executing machine learning workflows and supporting data science workloads. You will explore the platform from the perspective of a machine learning practitioner, covering topics such as building and managing features with Mosaic AI Feature Engineering, end-to-end model lifecycle management with MLflow, and pipeline orchestration with Lakeflow Jobs. Additionally, you will learn about real-time model inference with Databricks AI Model Serving and experience Databricks' transparent, conversational approach to model development through Genie Code - Data Science Agent Mode, where you use natural language prompts to generate, run, and iteratively refine executable ML workflows directly in your notebook. The course includes instructor-led demonstrations, culminating in a comprehensive lab that reinforces the concepts covered throughout.
Note: Databricks Academy is transitioning from video lectures to a more streamlined PDF format with slides and notes for all self-paced courses. Please note that demo videos will still be available in their original format. We would love to hear your thoughts on this change, so please share your feedback through the course survey at the end. Thank you for being a part of our learning community!
