Next-Gen Data Science: How Posit and Databricks Are Transforming Analytics at Scale

Modern data science teams face the challenge of navigating complex landscapes of languages, tools and infrastructure. Positron, Posit’s next-generation IDE, offers a powerful environment tailored for data science, seamlessly integrating with Databricks to empower teams working in Python and R. Now integrated within Posit Workbench, Positron enables data scientists to efficiently develop, iterate and analyze data with Databricks — all while maintaining their preferred workflows. In this session, we’ll explore how Python and R users can develop, deploy and scale their data science workflows by combining Posit tools with Databricks. We’ll showcase how Positron simplifies development for both Python and R and how Posit Connect enables seamless deployment of applications, reports and APIs powered by Databricks. Join us to see how Posit + Databricks create a frictionless, scalable and collaborative data science experience — so your teams can focus on insights, not infrastructure.
