Databricks Data Science & Engineering guide
Databricks Data Science & Engineering is the classic Databricks environment for collaboration among data scientists, data engineers, and data analysts. It also forms the backbone of the Databricks Machine Learning environment.
Note
If you are a data analyst who works primarily with SQL queries and BI tools, you may prefer the Databricks SQL persona-based environment.
