CI/CD with Databricks Asset Bundles (DAB)

Build production-grade deployment pipelines with Databricks Asset Bundles. Package your Project as Code!

Description

Are you ready to put DevOps and CI/CD to work in your Databricks deployments?

In this course, you’ll become an expert in Databricks Asset Bundles—the official “workspace-as-code” framework that brings true DevOps to your analytics platform. You’ll learn to bundle notebooks, jobs, pipelines, cluster specs, infrastructure and workspace configurations into a single, versioned package—and then automate its validation, testing, and multi-stage deployment through CI/CD pipelines. No more one-off clicks or hidden drift—just repeatable, reliable releases.

High-Level Curriculum Overview

• Introduction & Core Concepts

  Get oriented with Databricks Asset Bundles and CI/CD concepts. Review the course goals, the “infinite delivery loop,” and where to find code samples for each hands-on module.

• Environment & Setup

  Provision your Azure Databricks workspaces, configure VS Code, install the Databricks CLI, and prepare Databricks Connect for IDE-driven development.

• Asset Bundles Fundamentals

  Learn the core databricks bundles commands—init, validate, deploy, run, and destroy—and how to define, version, and manage your analytics project in databricks.yml.

• Local Development and Unit Testing

  Integrate PyTest for unit and integration tests, run tests via CI or Databricks Connect, and generate coverage reports to enforce quality gates.

  Understand how to switch between local PySpark for rapid unit testing and Databricks Connect to execute and debug code on real clusters, ensuring parity between your IDE and the cloud.

• Hands-On Projects

  Apply your knowledge in three practical hands-on projects:

  • Notebook ETL pipelines (Bronze→Silver→Gold)

  • Python script tasks and .whl-packaged jobs

  • Delta Live Tables streaming pipelines

• Git Integration & CI/CD Pipelines

  Onboard your project to Git, adopt branch-based workflows, and author GitHub Actions or Azure Pipelines to automate builds, tests, staging (with approval), and production rollouts.

By the end of this course, you’ll have an automated end to end CI/CD process for your entire Databricks environment.
