Databricks builds cloud software that businesses use to organize data, analyze it, and develop AI applications. Its lakehouse architecture brings the flexible storage of a data lake together with the querying and management tools of a data warehouse. Data engineers prepare and update datasets, analysts build reports, and developers train models or create applications in a shared workspace with controls over who can use the data. The platform runs on Amazon, Microsoft, and Google clouds, and customers pay for computing usage or commit to longer contracts for discounted rates.
