Zero-copy integration from Databricks overview
Learn about zero-copy integration from Databricks, which uses interaction and transaction data stored in Databricks for profile views and segmentation.
Zero-copy integration from Databricks queries data in your Databricks workspace and returns the results to Reltio Intelligent 360, without copying the data into Reltio. The data stays in your workspace and under your governance.
Databricks remains the source for interaction and transaction data, and Reltio remains the source for mastered profile data. Load entity and demographic data into Reltio so that Reltio resolves identities and maintains the profiles. Reltio queries the Databricks tables and views that you map, and links each row to a profile through a crosswalk identifier.
The following roles configure or manage zero-copy integration from Databricks:
