The Right Way to Configure Databricks on AWS (Step-by-Step)
Summary
Deploying a Databricks workspace on AWS requires creating a cross-account IAM role, VPC with security groups, S3 bucket, and a read/write IAM role to enable the Databricks control plane to provision compute resources in your AWS account. The process involves configuring each AWS resource with specific settings in both the AWS console and Databricks console, then provisioning the workspace which activates within minutes.
