SOBRE ESTE EPISÓDIO
In a conversation with Kurt Holst from Databricks we learn how Databricks and SAP Data Management applications are a match made in heaven. With the launch of BDC, it is now possible to share data to the leading Data Engineering and AI ops tool on the market – Databricks. We discuss what Databricks is all about and specifically why it makes sense to use data where without copying it too much around. Kurt gives us examples of use cases and explain the zero-copy delta-sharing concept.
