Enable serverless compute
Serverless compute for notebooks, workflows, and DLT is automatically enabled in many accounts. If your account was automatically enabled, no additional steps are necessary. Serverless compute is available by default in your eligible workspaces. If you signed up for a free trial, this feature is automatically enabled on your account after the trial ends.

This feature can only be used in workspaces that meet the eligibility requirements. See Eligibility.
