  • Conduct regular security audits and vulnerability assessments.
  • Managing Cluster and Budget Policies :
  • Define and implement compute policies to control cluster creation, configuration, and resource usage, ensuring cost optimization.
  • Monitor and manage serverless budget policies to attribute usage to specific teams or projects.
  • Optimize cluster configurations for performance and cost-effectiveness, leveraging features like auto-scaling and auto-termination.
  • Manage cluster pools to reduce startup times and improve resource allocation.
  • Reporting and Addressing Discrepancies :
  • Monitor Databricks platform health, performance, and resource utilization.
  • Identify and troubleshoot issues related to user access, data availability, cluster performance, and policy violations.
