Understand the interactive cluster
- [Presenter] Cluster plays a very significant role in the Databricks world because clusters are the one who provide the computation power to run all your notebooks. Without the cluster, you cannot execute anything into the Databricks world. And interactive cluster is one of the most commonly used cluster in that database development world. Let's just understand this. Interactive cluster, as the name suggest, is basically designed for an interactive ad hoc queries and the workloads. For example, so far, in this entire course, we have done lots of notebook execution for cleaning, processing, and analytical purpose. In all of that, we have used the cluster that is interactive only. So the interactive cluster is used for all that exploration and can be used in a collaborative manner. Let's understand some of the key features of this interactive cluster. Interactive cluster is used for interactive execution. What does it mean by interactive execution? It means that you have a notebook…
