You will learn how to get your data bricks community edition in this post!
Databricks provides a unified, open platform for all your data. It empowers data scientists, data engineers and data analysts with a simple collaborative environment to run interactive and scheduled data analysis workloads. You can get your very own slice of pie for experimentation.
Follow the below steps:
- Go to “https://community.cloud.databricks.com/login.html”
- Click on “New to Databricks? Sign Up”
- Fill in the form present & click on GET Started for Free
- This would bring you to set-up a cloud account page, you can opt for “Get Started with Community Edition”.
- There would be certain verifications done.
- Check your email!
- Once the email is verified, we can login into our workspace, now this has limited functionality, but its a very place to start with experimentation.
- We have to create a cluster & attach the same to the notebook for execution.
Creating you first Cluster
- To create your first cluster, on the left side navigation bar click on compute.
- On the left corner, look for “Create Cluster” button.
- Give the Name for your first cluster & leave the other settings as default.
- Click on “Create Cluster”, please note that in community edition we can only create 1 cluster.
Voila!! we are all set to try Databricks!
As learning is a continuous curve, we must never stop!
See you in the next one!
