Databricks Runtime is a pre-configured virtual machine image optimized for use within Databricks clusters. It includes a set of core components, such as Apache Spark, Delta Lake, and other essential system libraries. Delta Lake enhances traditional data lakes by providing transactional guarantees similar to those found in operational databases, thereby ensuring improved data reliability and consistency.
Apache Spark, an open source data processing engine, is a cornerstone of the Databricks platform, enabling fast and scalable analytics. Databricks, founded by the original creators of Apache Spark, has deeply integrated Spark into its platform, making it one of the most optimized environments for running Spark applications.

By the end of this book, you'll know everything you need to ace the Databricks Data Engineer Associate certification exam with flying colors, and start your career as a certified data engineer from Databricks!
You'll learn how to:
Use the Databricks Platform and Delta Lake effectively Perform advanced ETL tasks using Apache Spark SQL Design multi-hop architecture to process data incrementally Build production pipelines using Delta Live Tables and Databricks Jobs Implement data governance using Databricks SQL and Unity Catalog
Who This Book Is For: This book is designed for anyone seeking to advance their data engineering skills, whether you’re just beginning your journey or already have some experience in the field. It’s tailored specifically for those preparing for the Databricks Data Engineer Associate certification, but it also serves as a practical guide for anyone who wants to gain a deeper understanding of the Databricks platform and its many capabilities.
The book is ideal for individuals who already have a strong foundation in SQL and a basic understanding of Python. If you are familiar with manipulating data using SQL and are looking to apply those skills within the Databricks platform, this guide will help you bridge that gap. The choice to focus primarily on SQL in this book reflects the structure of the certification exam, where most code-based questions are demonstrated using SQL. However, for more complex operations where SQL alone is insufficient, Python is introduced to complement your learning.
