Find out what your peers are saying about Databricks, Microsoft, Alteryx and others in Data Science Platforms."The capacity of use of the different types of coding is valuable. Databricks also has good performance because it is running in spark extra storage, meaning the performance and the capacity use different kinds of codes."
"The most valuable feature of Databricks is the integration with Microsoft Azure."
"Databricks helps crunch petabytes of data in a very short period of time."
"Databricks is based on a Spark cluster and it is fast. Performance-wise, it is great."
"The solution is very simple and stable."
"Databricks' most valuable features are the workspace and notebooks. Its integration, interface, and documentation are also good."
"Databricks gives us the ability to build a lakehouse framework and do everything implicit to this type of database structure. We also like the ability to stream events. Databricks covers a broad spectrum, from reporting and machine learning to streaming events. It's important for us to have all these features in one platform."
"I like the ability to use workspaces with other colleagues because you can work together even without seeing the other team's job."
"Feature-wise, I feel that the solution's stability is good."
"I would like to see more documentation in terms of how an end-user could use it, and users like me can easily try it and implement use cases."
"Databricks' performance when serving the data to an analytics tool isn't as good as Snowflake's."
"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."
"There would also be benefits if more options were available for workers, or the clusters of the two points."
"If I want to create a Databricks account, I need to have a prior cloud account such as an AWS account or an Azure account. Only then can I create a Databricks account on the cloud. However, if they can make it so that I can still try Databricks even if I don't have a cloud account on AWS and Azure, it would be great. That is, it would be nice if it were possible to create a pseudo account and be provided with a free trial. It is very essential to creating a workforce on Databricks. For example, students or corporate staff can then explore and learn Databricks."
"The integration of data could be a bit better."
"The Databricks cluster can be improved."
"It is not a very scalable product."
