You plan to perform batch processing in Azure Databricks once daily.
Which type of Databricks cluster should you use?

  • A. automated
  • B. interactive
  • C. High Concurrency
Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A 🗳️
Azure Databricks has two types of clusters: interactive and automated. You use interactive clusters to analyze data collaboratively with interactive notebooks. You use automated clusters to run fast and robust automated jobs.
Example: Scheduled batch workloads (data engineers running ETL jobs)
This scenario involves running batch job JARs and notebooks on a regular cadence through the Databricks platform.
The suggested best practice is to launch a new cluster for each run of critical jobs. This helps avoid any issues (failures, missing SLA, and so on) due to an existing workload (noisy neighbor) on a shared cluster.

There's no such thing as automated cluster. "Databricks makes a distinction between all-purpose clusters and job clusters". https://docs.databricks.com/clusters/index.html
