Understanding Databricks For Etl Slides

The document discusses the concept of ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) and the challenges associated with traditional ETL pipelines, such as scalability and high maintenance costs. It highlights Databricks as a unified analytics platform built on Apache Spark that addresses these challenges through Delta Lake integration and collaborative features. Additionally, it explains the Lakehouse architecture, which combines the benefits of data lakes and warehouses, and provides examples of batch and streaming ETL use cases.

What Is ETL?

Extract Transform Load


Challenges with Traditional ETL Pipelines

Limited scalability for growing data volumes

Complexity in managing multiple tools and


workflows

High maintenance and operational costs

Inadequate support for real-time processing


Unified analytics platform
How Databricks Built on Apache Spark
Addresses These
Delta Lake integration
Challenges
Collaborative notebooks
The Power of Delta Lake

Reliability Scalability Unified storage Real-time &


later batch
processing
Real-world Example:
Shell’s Data Pipeline with Databricks

Adopted Databricks’ unified analytics platform to replace siloed


legacy ETL systems

Leveraged Apache Spark’s fast processing and Delta Lake’s ACID


transactions

Enabled both batch and streaming processing to handle historical


data and real-time sensor feeds
Lakehouse Architecture Explained
Data Lakes vs. Data Warehouses

Data Lakes vs. Data Warehouses

Store raw, unstructured, or Store structured, curated data


semi-structured data
Optimized for fast, complex queries
Highly scalable and cost-effective and analytics
Ideal for storing vast volumes of Often come with higher costs and
diverse data less flexibility for raw data
Introducing the Lakehouse Architecture

Merges the benefits of data lakes and data warehouses into one
unified platform

Supports both structured and unstructured data without the need


for complex ETL processes

Uses Delta Lake to add reliability, ACID transactions, and schema


enforcement to the data lake
Delta Lake: The Engine of the Lakehouse

ACID transactions
Schema enforcement
Time travel

Unified batch & streaming


Batch vs. Streaming ETL
Use Cases for Batch ETL

Historical data Data warehouse Latency of several


analysis and reporting updates and minutes to hours is
scheduled acceptable
aggregations
Use Cases for Streaming ETL

Real-time monitoring IoT data ingestion and Fraud detection, live


and alerting processing dashboards, and
continuous customer
analytics
