Top Executive: CEO Ali Ghodsi
Databricks, founded by the developers of the Apache Spark cluster computing framework, markets a cloud-based unified analytics engine for big data processing, data science, analytics and machine learning tasks.
In February, San Francisco-based Databricks announced easier ways for customers to populate “lakehouses” – which combine elements of data lake and data warehouse systems – with data using the vendor’s Databricks Ingest software and tools from the vendor’s new Data Ingestion Network of partners.
