Love this integration between @huggingface and @databricks. Concretely, you will be able to train your own LLM from using Spark and Transformer/Dataset with this tight integration: databricks.com/blog/contribu…

Awesome to see Oracle adopt #DeltaSharing (from @DeltaLakeOSS)! This means you can share data between Oracle, Databricks, Apache Spark, pandas, PowerBI, Excel and any system that supports the open protocol. Open makes sense for a sharing solution. infoworld.com/article/369521…

Lots of folks are under the misguided impression that switching to Delta Lake is a big change. For many organizations, it's trivially easy. You can oftentimes just change a few lines of code to switch from #parquet to #deltalake. 🦀 Credit: Matthew Powers #opensource #oss

Insightful benchmark of Linux Foundation Delta Lake and Apache Iceberg by @BrooklynData that shows Delta is up to 8x faster in workloads with data updates. Most storage benchmarks only test reads, but with updates, care is needed to maintain performance. brooklyndata.co/blog/benchma…

Check out Karthik's talk on the new things we're doing in @ApacheSpark Structured Streaming. It's one of the fastest growing use cases we see on Databricks and we have a lot coming to improve performance and usability.
