Databricks is enhancing its Lakehouse platform by enabling SQL practitioners to utilize declarative patterns for ETL processes directly within SQL queries. This move aims to simplify complex data transformation logic, allowing users to define append-only updates, change data capture (CDC), and batch overwrites without extensive custom coding. By extending the declarative execution model of Apache Spark Declarative Pipelines, Databricks allows users to describe the desired table or view, with the platform handling scheduling, refresh, and incremental processing.
