This comprehensive checklist guides the deployment of Databricks data pipelines and jobs to a production environment. It covers critical stages including pre-deployment security hardening (Service Principals, Unity Catalog), validating infrastructure (cluster types, autoscaling), ensuring code quality (unit/integration tests, Delta Lake best practices), executing controlled deployment, and performing post-deployment health checks and monitoring setup. Ideal for CI/CD pipelines and go-live procedures.

This guide outlines a production-ready lakehouse architecture using Unity Catalog, Delta Lake, and the Medallion pattern. It provides best practices for organizing Databricks workspaces, implementing three-level governance, defining compute strategies, and adopting CI/CD best practices with Asset Bundles for robust team collaboration.

A comprehensive guide to implementing best practices for security within Databricks. Learn how to manage secrets using scoped storage, enforce the principle of least privilege via Unity Catalog grants, audit API tokens, and apply advanced data protection techniques like column-level masking and row-level security for enhanced data governance and compliance.

This comprehensive guide provides structured steps and code examples for upgrading Databricks Runtime versions and performing critical data migrations. It covers best practices for version compatibility checking, transitioning from Hive Metastore to Unity Catalog using methods like SYNC and CTAS, and updating deprecated API endpoints, ensuring a smooth platform evolution for data pipelines.
