Topic

Why it matters

Databricks user persona

The workflow depends on your Databricks user persona:

  • Single-user: An admin user creates a Unity Catalog connection and an ingestion pipeline.
  • Multi-user: An admin user creates a connection for non-admin users to create pipelines with.

Authentication method

The steps to create a connection depend on the authentication method you select.

Interface

The steps to create a pipeline depend on the interface.

Ingestion frequency

The pipeline schedule depends on your latency and cost requirements.

Common patterns

Depending on your ingestion needs, the pipeline might use configurations like history tracking, column selection, and row filtering. Supported configurations vary by connector. See Feature availability.

Steps

Admin

  1. Configure Wiz to enable authentication from Databricks. See Configure authentication to Wiz.
  2. Use Catalog Explorer to create a connection to Wiz so that non-admins can create pipelines. See Create a Wiz Audit Logs connection.

Non-admin

Use any supported interface to create a pipeline from an existing connection. See Ingest data from Wiz Audit Logs.
