Data Lakehouse Databricks Python SQL

While SQL is powerful, it does have some limits. Fear not, this lightning talk introduces user-defined functions (UDFs) written in Python, managed and governed in Databricks Unity Catalog, and usable across the Lakehouse. This covers the basics from how to create and govern UDFs to more advanced topics including networking, observability and provide a glimpse of how it works under the hood. After this session, you will be equipped to take SQL and the Lakehouse to the next level using Python UDFs.
