Ever heard someone say "You can't do real BI in Databricks?" - we sure have, and for a long time we agreed. There were a whole bunch of features missing that have been in mature BI tools for years and years - but when was the last time you sat down and tried out AI/BI Dashboards in anger? The latest round of updates have dropped over the past few months, fixes some of the biggest complaints around dashboarding in Databricks. You want easy cross-filtering, drill-through reports and interactivity? You've got it. You want colourful maps and more advanced visuals? That's in! Are you missing button-press AI forecasting? Not any more! In this video Simon walks through the latest AI/BI announcements blog, highlighting some of the features and how they can be used. The AI/BI story isn't finished yet - but with Databricks One, UC Metric Views and more all coming soon, now is the time to start getting excited about what's around the corner!
