How to Import the files from .dbc releases on GitHub

  1. You can download the notebooks from a release by navigating to the releases section on the GitHub page:

    github_release=
  2. From the releases page, download the .dbc file. This contains all of the course notebooks, with the structure and meta data.

    github_assets
  3. In your Databricks workspace, navigate to the Workspace menu, click on Home and select Import:

    workspace_import
  4. Using the import tool, navigate to the location on your computer where the .dbc file was dowloaded from Step 1. Once you select the file, click Import, and the files will be loaded and extracted to your workspace:

    select_import_file
Cluster settings

Which Databricks cluster should I use?

  1. First, select Single Node

    single_node
  2. This courseware has been tested on Databricks Runtime 13.3 LTS for Machine Learning. If you do not have access to a 13.3 LTS ML Runtime cluster, you will need to install many additional libraries (as the ML Runtime pre-installs many commonly used machine learning packages), and this courseware is not guaranteed to run.

    For Module 1 and 3 notebooks, you can run them on i3.xlarge just fine. We recommend i3.2xlarge for Module 2 and 4 notebooks.
