Welcome to the #9 meetup of the Databricks User Group Denmark!

We're excited to announce our next meetup and welcome seasoned as well as new members. Your participation and contributions are highly valued, and we hope to see you at the event.

This time, we have turned the wheel to Jutland for an insightful evening exploring the intersection of AI and engineering in Databricks. We’ll kick off with Maja and Niels, who will dive into Asset Bundles and how they streamline project development. After a networking break, Farzad will break down the performance and cost trade-offs between Databricks Instance Pools and Serverless compute.
