Show answer and explanation
Correct answers: A, C, D
Explanation
Databricks Repos is integral to enabling CI/CD workflows in Databricks by integrating with Git repositories for version control and supporting Git-based workflows for collaborative development. Additionally, it works seamlessly with external CI/CD tools to trigger jobs and workflows upon code changes. However, it does not automatically deploy changes or resolve merge conflicts, as these require additional configuration and manual intervention.
- A. Correct.
Correct: Databricks Repos support direct integration with Git repositories like GitHub and GitLab, providing version control and enabling collaboration.
- B. Incorrect.
Incorrect: While Databricks Repos integrates with CI/CD pipelines, it does not automatically deploy changes to production. Such deployment requires configuration through CI/CD tools.
- C. Correct.
Correct: Databricks Repos supports Git-based workflows, enabling developers to use feature branches for development and merge them back into main branches for collaboration.
- D. Correct.
Correct: By combining Databricks Repos with external CI/CD tools (e.g., Jenkins, GitHub Actions), you can set up triggers for jobs and workflows based on code updates.
- E. Incorrect.
Incorrect: Databricks Repos does not automatically resolve merge conflicts; developers must handle merge conflicts manually during branch merges.
