Hi Community,
There has 100s of opinions on whether to use Azure Fabric or Databricks for transformations. My question is if I have a Fabric Capacity of say F64 and I used an Azure Databricks Notebook would the cost of the execution of the Databricks Cluster used in the Azure Databricks notebook be covered under F64? I know for sure the cost for executing Ms Spark notebook would definitely be covered under F64 CUs, but not sure about the Azure Databricks1 cluster.
You're thoughts please.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Nope, The cost of Azure Databricks cluster wont be covered in F64 cost. It would be charged seperately
To add insult to injury, the owners of the Azure Databricks infrastructure will bicker with owners of the Fabric infrastructure over who has to pay that cost. Worst case scenario is when the ADBx people insist on Import mode connections so you can pay twice, once on each side.
