How Databricks consume the Lakehouse delta tables

Hi All,

Thanks in Advance.

AFAIK Databricks doesn't understand the Lakehouse table structure of Fabric, just the locations. Eg what I have done is create external tables in Databricks using a table location in fabric.

 

The Delta location itself in Fabric defines the table anyway, it's just it doesn't register the table in Databricks unless you create an external table over it.

Hi @AndyDDC Thanks for sharing it's really helpfull. In the 1st reference link, it given an example to read the files from lakehouse. Will it be the same way to read the lakeshouse tables?
Anythoughts...
