dbt and Databricks
dbt simplifies analytics on the Lakehouse, enabling teams to turn raw data into insights quickly and efficiently. See why dbt is the fastest growing data and AI product on Databricks.
Enhance the power of the Lakehouse with dbt Cloud
dbt Cloud makes more possible on Databricks:
- Involve data analysts in the development of data pipelines. With a guided workflow from development to production, dbt Cloud makes the Lakehouse accessible to those new to git and software development standards.
- Ease collaboration across teams. Organize data infrastructure into modular SQL queries or Python functions that can be built, maintained, and shared more easily — with automated dependency management and run sequencing.
- Make data understandable to line-of-business teams. Document as you code, and access lineage, documentation, and metadata through integrations with popular BI and data discoverability tools.
Reduce complexity and cost
With dbt, Delta Lake, and Databricks SQL, the entire data team can work in the same platform — avoiding redundant costs and simplifying architecture management.
Expand collaboration
dbt on Databricks brings best practices from analytics engineering to Databricks users, and dbt Cloud’s IDE makes the Lakehouse more accessible to analysts working in SQL.
Improve data discovery and governance
dbt’s support for Unity Catalog centralizes documentation and governance for your entire workflow.
