Description

Serverless workspaces in Azure Databricks are now generally available, offering a fully managed workspace type that comes preconfigured with serverless compute and default storage. They deliver an enterprise-ready SaaS experience with zero infrastructure setup. With this release, customers can create Azure Databricks "Serverless" workspaces directly from the Azure portal to run production workloads in minutes, rapidly spin up short-lived environments for training and testing, and empower admins who lack direct cloud provisioning permissions to deploy and manage secure, governed Azure Databricks environments at scale, all natively available to every user in your Entra tenant.
