Databricks connectivity - Unity catalogues

[Andrew Dumville]

When connecting to databricks lakehouse to access datasets, seems to be only allowed to select hive catalogues - does Atlassian analytics support unity catalogues..

If not, is there any work scheduled in your near-term roadmap?

Hi Andrew,

To make sure I understand correctly, is this regarding connecting Databricks to Atlassian Analytics as a third-party data source? https://support.atlassian.com/analytics/docs/connect-to-databricks/ 

If that's right, I can submit a feature request on your behalf to have this added.

Best,
Tracy

Yeah, that's correct. 

Databricks does not recommend building datasets using the legacy hive metastore catalogues

Thanks for the reply. I've opened the feature request ticket: https://jira.atlassian.com/browse/ANALYTICS-284.

I don't have an estimated timeline for when this will be worked on, so I recommend keeping an eye on the ticket for updates.
