Introduction to Databricks Connector
You can use Databricks Connector to securely read data from or write data to Databricks.
You can use Databricks Connector on the Windows and Linux operating systems and create a Databricks connection to connect to Databricks endpoints hosted on Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure environment, and Google Cloud Platform.
When you read data from and write data to Databricks, you can stage the data in Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure environment, or in a volume in Databricks.
You can connect to Databricks endpoints hosted on Google Cloud Platform only if you stage the data in a volume in Databricks.
You can use Delta UniForm to read Delta tables formatted for Apache Iceberg. When you use Delta UniForm, Databricks automatically creates the necessary Iceberg metadata files in the background that enables Iceberg clients to read Delta tables without rewriting data.
