Three critical analytics use cases with Microsoft Azure Databricks
Data science and machine learning can be applied to solve many common business scenarios, yet there are many barriers preventing organizations from adopting them. Collaboration between data scientists, data engineers, and business analysts and curating data, structured and unstructured, from disparate sources are two examples of such barriers – and we haven’t even gotten to the complexity involved when trying to do these things with large volumes of data.
Recommendation engines, clickstream analytics, and intrusion detection are common scenarios that many organizations are solving across multiple industries. They require machine learning, streaming analytics, and utilize massive amounts of data processing that can be difficult to scale without the right tools. Companies like Lennox International, E.ON, and renewables.AI are just a few examples of organizations that have deployed Apache Spark™ to solve these challenges using Microsoft Azure Databricks.
Your company can enable data science with high-performance analytics too. Designed in collaboration with the original creators of Apache Spark, Azure Databricks is a fast, easy, and collaborative Apache Spark™ based analytics platform optimized for Azure. Azure Databricks is integrated with Azure through one-click setup and provides streamlined workflows, and an interactive workspace that enables collaboration between data scientists, data engineers, and business analysts. Native integration with Azure Blob Storage, Azure Data Factory, Azure Data Lake Store, Azure SQL Data Warehouse, and Azure Cosmos DB allows organizations to use Azure Databricks to clean, join, and aggregate data no matter where it sits.
