Description
Are you ready to put DevOps and CI/CD to work in your Databricks deployments?

In this course, you'll become an expert in Databricks Asset Bundles—the official "workspace-as-code" framework that brings true DevOps to your analytics platform. You'll learn to bundle notebooks, jobs, pipelines, cluster specs, infrastructure and workspace configurations into a single, versioned package—and then automate its validation, testing, and multi-stage deployment through CI/CD pipelines. No more one-off clicks or hidden drift—just repeatable, reliable releases.

High-Level Curriculum Overview

Introduction & Core Concepts

Get oriented with Databricks Asset Bundles and CI/CD concepts. Review the course goals, the "infinite delivery loop," and where to find code samples for each hands-on module.

Environment & Setup

Provision your Azure Databricks workspaces, configure VS Code, install the Databricks CLI, and prepare Databricks Connect for IDE-driven development.

Asset Bundles Fundamentals

Learn the core databricks bundles commands—init, validate, deploy, run, and destroy—and how to define, version, and manage your analytics project in databricks.yml.

Local Development and Unit Testing

Integrate PyTest for unit and integration tests, run tests via CI or Databricks Connect, and generate coverage reports to enforce quality gates.

Understand how to switch between local PySpark for rapid unit testing and Databricks Connect to execute and debug code on real clusters, ensuring parity between your IDE and the cloud.

Hands-On Projects

Apply your knowledge in three practical hands-on projects:

Notebook ETL pipelines (Bronze→Silver→Gold)

Python script tasks and .whl-packaged jobs

Delta Live Tables streaming pipelines

Git Integration & CI/CD Pipelines

Onboard your project to Git, adopt branch-based workflows, and author GitHub Actions or Azure Pipelines to automate builds, tests, staging (with approval), and production rollouts.

By the end of this course, you'll have an automated end to end CI/CD process for your entire Databricks environment.

Who this course is for:
- Data Engineers working in Databricks environments
- DevOps engineers supporting data teams
- Team leads wanting to implement deployment best practices in Databricks
