Machine Learning Model Development

This comprehensive course provides a practical guide to developing traditional machine learning models on Databricks, emphasizing hands-on demonstrations and workflows using popular ML libraries. Participants will explore key ML techniques, including regression and clustering, while leveraging Databricks' powerful capabilities. The course covers MLflow integration for model tracking, Databricks Feature Store for feature management, and Optuna for hyperparameter tuning. Additionally, participants will learn how to accelerate model development with Genie Code, Databricks' AI-powered coding assistant that uses natural language, MCP connections, instructions, and skills to guide the full ML lifecycle. By the end of the course, learners will have real-world, practical skills to develop, optimize, and deploy machine learning models efficiently in the Databricks environment.

Automated Deployment with Declarative Automation Bundles

This course provides a comprehensive review of DevOps principles and their application to Databricks projects. It begins with an overview of core DevOps, DataOps, continuous integration (CI), continuous deployment (CD), and testing, and explores how these principles can be applied to data engineering pipelines.

The course then focuses on continuous deployment within the CI/CD process, examining tools like the Databricks REST API, SDK, and CLI for project deployment. You will learn about Declarative Automation Bundles (DABs) and how they fit into the CI/CD process. You’ll dive into their key components, folder structure, and how they streamline deployment across various target environments in Databricks. You will also learn how to add variables, modify, validate, deploy, and execute Declarative Automation Bundles for multiple environments with different configurations using the Databricks CLI.

Finally, the course introduces Visual Studio Code as an Interactive Development Environment (IDE) for building, testing, and deploying Declarative Automation Bundles locally, optimizing your development process. The course concludes with an introduction to automating deployment pipelines using GitHub Actions to enhance the CI/CD workflow with Declarative Automation Bundles.

By the end of this course, you will be equipped to automate Databricks project deployments with Declarative Automation Bundles, improving efficiency through DevOps practices.
