Databricks adds new SQL Analytics Workspace and Endpoint features, consolidating its acquisition of Redash and bolstering its "data lakehouse" marketing push.

Fivetran’s support for SQL Analytics will enable data analysts and BI users to build end-to-end data pipelines on their lakehouse architecture in Databricks.

With Photon Vectorized Query Engine enabled, these instances dramatically outperformed r5a.2xlarge instances featuring AMD EPYC™ processors on decision support workloads and delivered better value.

Databricks and Snowflake came from data lake and data warehousing worlds, respectively, and are now battling in the lakehouse.
