Databrick Lakehouse Review
What do you like best about the product?
One of the best analytical databases currently available in the market and can handle all formats of data ranging from structured, semi-structured, to unstructured.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have anything I particularly don't like. If there is, I would say the SPARK statistical modeling libraries are still quite limited comparing with the packages from R, SAS, or Python.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Databricks help us solve the data integration and processing legacy issues and also can provide AI, ML, statistical modeling functionalities and enable my team to build predictive models

I like working on Databricks
What do you like best about the product?
Databricks allow us to access data via pyspark, python and sql.
The interface is easy to use and most of my work is spent there.

What do you dislike about the product?
I was told the model training part is more costly in Databricks than in Azure.
So some of the jobs need to be done in databricks and some of the jobs need to be done on Azure.
It will be good if cost is not an issue when choosing platforms.

What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like some of the documentation. Some of the features are not being maintained properly and some of the features that are mainly needed never get added. However, I don't think this is an issue with Databricks but rather an issue on MLFLow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improve data processing efficiency: The platform enables organizations to process large volumes of data quickly and efficiently, with support for distributed processing and scalable data storage.
Increase data integrity and consistency: By unifying data lakes and data warehouses, the platform helps to maintain data consistency and integrity across different systems and data sources.
Streamline data analysis and modeling: With built-in data analytics and machine learning tools, the platform makes it easy for users to perform complex data analysis and modeling tasks, without the need for specialized expertise or custom code.

It just works
What do you like best about the product?
It's fully managed, and gives us lots of processing power with very little effort.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are lots of areas to it, so understanding all of it at any depth takes time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a single place for all our data, and the compute is separated from the storage, meaning we can use it for reporting and more comprehensive analytics without performance impact.
Key to modern data management platform
What do you like best about the product?
One of the key advantages of Databricks Lakehouse Platform is its unified approach to data management, which allows organizations to manage all types of data, including structured, semi-structured, and unstructured, in a single location. This simplifies data management and provides a unified view of all data, enabling better decision-making.
Another advantage is its scalability and performance. Databricks Lakehouse Platform is designed to handle large volumes of data and can scale horizontally as well as vertically. It also provides high-speed data processing and query performance, thanks to its distributed architecture and optimized computing engines.
The platform's built-in capabilities for machine learning and AI is another advantage. This allows organizations to easily integrate machine learning and AI into their data workflows and derive insights and value from their data.

What do you dislike about the product?
One potential challenge is the learning curve associated with the platform. Databricks Lakehouse Platform requires a certain level of technical expertise and familiarity with the tools and technologies used in the platform, such as Apache Spark, SQL, and Python. This can make it challenging for some organizations to adopt the platform, especially if they lack the necessary expertise.
Another potential limitation is the cost associated with the platform. Databricks Lakehouse Platform is a commercial product, and as such, it requires a subscription or licensing fee. This can be a barrier to entry for some organizations, especially smaller ones with limited budgets.

My Databricks Lakehouse Platform review
What do you like best about the product?
Since Databricks Lakehouse provided a unified single platform for data processing, analysis, and machine learning, it helped me to work with the structured, semi-structured, and unstructured datas in a single environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Databricks Lakehouse required me to learn few tools and technologies, such as Apache Spark and Delta Lake, which as a beginner was a bit complex for me to learn.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Databricks Lakehouse solved the problem of data integration which involved the process of combining data from multiple sources into a single, unified format. It also offered integration with a variety of data sources, including data lakes, data warehouses, and streaming data sources thus it made easier to bring disparate data sets together in a single platform.
