Databricks AI/BI for Self-Service Analytics

In this course, you will learn how to self-serve business insights from your company’s Databricks Data Intelligence Platform using AI/BI. After a tour of the fundamental components of the platform, you’ll learn how to interact with pre-created AI/BI Dashboards to explore your company’s data through existing charts and visualizations. You’ll also learn how to use AI/BI Genie to go beyond dashboards by asking follow-up questions in natural language to self-serve new insights, create visualizations, and share them with your colleagues.

The course also includes two guided demonstrations for hands-on practice in a virtual environment.

Data Ingestion with Lakeflow Connect

This course provides a comprehensive introduction to Lakeflow Connect as a scalable and simplified solution for ingesting data into Databricks from a variety of data sources. You will begin by exploring the different types of connectors within Lakeflow Connect (Standard and Managed), learn about various ingestion techniques, including batch, incremental batch, and streaming, and then review the key benefits of Delta tables and the Medallion architecture.

From there, you will gain practical skills to efficiently ingest data from cloud object storage using Lakeflow Connect Standard Connectors with methods such as CREATE TABLE AS (CTAS), COPY INTO, and Auto Loader, along with the benefits and considerations of each approach. You will then learn how to append metadata columns to your bronze level tables during ingestion into the Databricks data intelligence platform. This is followed by working with the rescued data column, which handles records that don’t match the schema of your bronze table, including strategies for managing this rescued data.

The course also introduces techniques for ingesting and flattening semi-structured JSON data, as well as enterprise-grade data ingestion using Lakeflow Connect Managed Connectors.

Finally, learners will explore alternative ingestion strategies, including MERGE INTO operations and leveraging the Databricks Marketplace, equipping you with foundational knowledge to support modern data engineering ingestion.
