Find out what your peers are saying about Snowflake Computing, Oracle, Teradata and others in Data Warehouse."The deployment of our solution across a number of servers using Ingres .NET has meant that we can protect the database server behind a highly secure firewall and deploy the front end solutions on a normal web server."
"It is a cost-effective solution."
"Databricks has improved my organization by allowing us to transform data from sources to a different format and feed that to the analytics, business intelligence, and reporting teams. This tool makes it easy to do those kinds of things."
"The solution is built from Spark and has integration with MLflow, which is important for our use case."
"Databricks provides a consistent interface for data engineers to work with data in a consistent language on a single integrated platform for ingesting, processing, and serving data to the end user."
"I like the ability to use workspaces with other colleagues because you can work together even without seeing the other team's job."
"The Delta Lake data type has been the most useful part of this solution. Delta Lake is an opensource data type and it was implemented and invented by Databricks."
"The solution's features are fantastic and include interactive clusters that perform at top speed when compared to other solutions."
"Databricks makes it really easy to use a number of technologies to do data analysis. In terms of languages, we can use Scala, Python, and SQL. Databricks enables you to run very large queries, at a massive scale, within really good timeframes."
"The ability to reset the log file without stopping the DBMS would be helpful for us."
"Databricks would benefit from enhanced metrics and tighter integration with Azure's diagnostics."
"The stability of the clusters or the instances of Databricks would be better if it was a much more stable environment. We've had issues with crashes."
"I would like it if Databricks made it easier to set up a project."
"Anyone who doesn't know SQL may find the product difficult to work with."
"The product should provide more advanced features in future releases."
"The integration features could be more interesting, more involved."
"The product could be improved by offering an expansion of their visualization capabilities, which currently assists in development in their notebook environment."
"Databricks' performance when serving the data to an analytics tool isn't as good as Snowflake's."
