Data Lakes with Azure Databricks

Data warehouses are not enough. Data lakes are the backbone of a modern data environment. Data Lakes are best built leveraging unique services of the cloud provider to reduce operations complexity. This session will explain why everyone's talking about data lakes, break down the best services in Azure to build a Data Lake, and walk through code for querying and loading with Azure Databricks and Event Hubs for Kafka. Attendees will leave the session with a firm grasp of why we build data lakes and how Azure Databricks fits in for ETL and querying.
