Appendix B. Databricks Community Edition
Databricks Community Edition provides a free and accessible way for you to explore the capabilities of Databricks without the need for a cloud account. However, it is limited compared to the full trial available on cloud platforms like AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. The full cloud-based trial provides access to production-grade functionalities such as Databricks SQL, Delta Live Tables, and Git folders, which are not included in the Community Edition.
If you do not yet have a cloud account, it is possible to create one at no cost. Major cloud providers generally offer free tiers, which allow you to explore their services within specified usage limits. This option provides an opportunity to experience the full capabilities of Databricks in a cloud environment, which is essential for understanding and preparation for the exam.
Nevertheless, the Community Edition remains a good starting point for anyone new to Databricks, offering an opportunity to explore the platform’s core concepts and tools. To sign up for Databricks Community Edition, follow these steps:
