**Databricks just made a BIG move in the data world. π¨**
DLT (Delta Live Tables) was once a Databricks-only feature.
**Not anymore.**
Databricks has open-sourced the technology into Apache Spark as **Spark Declarative Pipelines (SDP)**.
In simple words: π You describe **what data pipeline you want** π Spark figures out **how to execute it** π Dependencies are automatically managed π Independent tables can run in parallel π Data quality checks can be defined directly in the pipeline
And the interesting part? π
**Your existing DLT code still works.** Thereβs no forced migration.
The bigger change is this:
**Declarative pipelines are moving from being a Databricks feature to becoming an open Spark standard.**
If you're working with Databricks or Apache Spark, **SDP is definitely something worth learning now.**
Are you already experimenting with **Spark Declarative Pipelines outside Databricks?** π
