Every day this month we will be releasing a new video on Azure Databricks.

We have done the introductions, now we are getting in to the meat. Today we are tackling "How do You Size Your Azure Databricks Clusters?”.

In this video Simon takes you through how to size a cluster. We look at what happens when you take 3GB of data and cache it on a 2 node cluster. How do you see the distribution of data? How many partitions are there on each node?. How do we achieve workload isolation? All these questions are answered.
