You plan to create an Azure Databricks workspace that has a tiered structure.

The workspace will contain the following three workloads:

✑ A workload for data engineers who will use Python and SQL

✑ A workload for jobs that will run notebooks that use Python, Spark, Scala, and SQL

✑ A workload that data scientists will use to perform ad hoc analysis in Scala and R

The enterprise architecture team at your company identifies the following standards for Databricks environments:

✑ The data engineers must share a cluster.

✑ The job cluster will be managed by using a request process whereby data scientists and data engineers provide packaged notebooks for deployment to the cluster.

✑ All the data scientists must be assigned their own cluster that terminates automatically after 120 minutes of inactivity. Currently, there are three data scientists.

You need to create the Databrick clusters for the workloads.

Solution: You create a Standard cluster for each data scientist, a Standard cluster for the data engineers, and a High Concurrency cluster for the jobs.

Does this meet the goal?
A . Yes
B . No

Answer: B

Explanation:

We need a High Concurrency cluster for the data engineers and the jobs.

Note:

Standard clusters are recommended for a single user. Standard can run workloads developed in any language: Python, R, Scala, and SQL.

A high concurrency cluster is a managed cloud resource. The key benefits of high concurrency clusters are that they provide Apache Spark-native fine-grained sharing for maximum resource utilization and minimum query latencies.
