Databricks, Inc. is a global data, analytics and artificial intelligence company founded by the original creators of Apache Spark.

The company provides a cloud-based platform to help enterprises build, scale, and govern data and AI, including generative AI and other machine learning models.

Databricks pioneered the data lakehouse, a data and AI platform that combines the capabilities of a data warehouse with a data lake, allowing organizations to manage and use both structured and unstructured data for traditional business analytics and AI workloads.

Databricks acquired MosaicML for $1.4 billion in June 2023, its largest acquisition.

In November 2023, Databricks unveiled the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform, a new offering that combines the unification benefits of the lakehouse with MosaicML’s Generative AI technology to enable customers to better understand and use their own proprietary data.

The company develops Delta Lake, an open-source project to bring reliability to data lakes for machine learning and other data science use cases.
