    Snowflake and Databricks are different, sometimes complementary technologies. You can store data in Snowflake & query it with Databricks for example: https://github.com/snowflakedb/spark-snowflake

    Snowflake predicate pushdown filtering seems quite promising: https://www.snowflake.com/blog/snowflake-spark-part-2-pushin...

    Think both these companies can win.

  • Ask HN: Tips for software engineering sanity with Databricks notebooks?
    1 project | news.ycombinator.com | 15 Dec 2022
    You can use Databricks Repos (https://docs.databricks.com/repos/index.html) specifically files in repos (https://docs.databricks.com/repos/work-with-notebooks-other-...) functionality that allows to use Python files (not notebooks!) as Python modules.

    Another alternative is to split notebooks into “library notebooks” that just define transformations, and “orchestration notebooks” that use code library notebooks to execute a “business logic”.

    In both approaches you can do code testing, etc.

    P.S. I have a demo of both approaches here: https://github.com/alexott/databricks-nutter-repos-demo

    I’m sorry for delay, will fix ASAP...

    My point is that you can do that even without jars/wheels - you can do VC and tests of notebooks. For example, https://github.com/alexott/databricks-nutter-projects-demo
