Google Drive → Databricks SQL Warehouse
AI-first ETL from Google Drive into Databricks SQL Warehouse. Governed entities, incremental sync, typed landing tables.
How Datrise loads Google Drive into Databricks SQL Warehouse
Datrise syncs Google Drive's files, folders, permissions, and revision metadata into Databricks SQL Warehouse as a Delta Lake table per source entity. Flexible or custom fields land in VARIANT or STRUCT columns, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as TIMESTAMP.
Sync is incremental: Datrise uses a Delta MERGE on stable id, with change history available via time travel, so re-runs update only what changed. Delta partitioning by load date with OPTIMIZE/Z-ORDER on query keys. Datrise writes Unity Catalog–governed Delta tables, so lineage and permissions are managed centrally rather than per-notebook.
Ideal for lakehouse analytics and ML feature tables on Databricks.
