How Indra unified EV charging data on Databricks
Indra consolidated EV charging, fleet, and operational data onto Databricks, replacing a sprawl of Azure tools, duplicated pipelines, and brittle manual reporting with a single governed platform. The move cut costs, sped up queries, enabled self-service dashboards, and set up the infrastructure needed for streaming and AI use cases. Client.listTools() called but server does not advertise tools capability - returning empty list
How Trackunit turns construction data into decisions with AI
Trackunit's IrisX, an operating data platform built on Databricks, unifies fragmented equipment and operational data from OEMs, rental companies, contractors, EPCs, owners, and developers into a single connected view. By converting raw machine signals into contextual intelligence and embedding it directly into workflows, IrisX helps construction teams make faster decisions on uptime, service, utilization, billing, and asset value.
Fast, fault-tolerant PyTorch training on AI Runtime
Fast, fault-tolerant PyTorch training on AI Runtime treats GPU failures as the expected case, using torch's distributed asynchronous checkpoint saves to make frequent checkpointing nearly free and cut recovery cost. It also argues that checkpointing the data pipeline alongside the model is essential, since model-only checkpoints can silently corrupt training data on resume.
Building for the AI Era: Lakebase, Streaming, and Lakehouse Innovations at VLDB 2026
Databricks is bringing Lakebase, Structured Streaming, and Lakehouse optimizations to VLDB 2026, spotlighting Lakebase as a third-generation cloud database that decouples transactional compute from storage to support agentic workflows. The company's Engineering and Recruiting teams will also be on-site at the conference.
What QSR reports miss about the decisions matter the most
The Lovelytics QSR Executive Performance Control Tower on Databricks links a missed-promotion metric to its likely root cause—guest demand, franchise participation, ingredient availability, or restaurant execution—rather than just flagging that plan wasn't hit. That shared view of cause and value at stake lets corporate and franchisees act on restaurant-level margin before the next planning cycle closes.
