FAQPage Schema
How do I ingest real-time data directly into Delta Lake without an intermediate message bus?

You can ingest real-time data directly into Delta Lake by using gRPC clients to write record-by-record data to Unity Catalog managed tables, eliminating the need for intermediate message bus infrastructure.

What is Zerobus Ingest and how does it handle direct Databricks ingestion?

Zerobus Ingest is a gRPC-based ingestion mechanism that builds clients to write near real-time data directly into Databricks Delta tables with stream-based ACK handling and retry logic.

Can I use the Zerobus Ingest SDK with Python or Java for Unity Catalog tables?

Yes, the Zerobus Ingest SDK supports Python, Java, Go, TypeScript, and Rust for creating producers that write directly to Unity Catalog managed Delta tables.

How do I generate Protobuf schemas from Unity Catalog tables for type-safe ingestion?

You can generate Protobuf schemas directly from Unity Catalog tables to enable type-safe, record-by-record data ingestion into Databricks Delta tables via the supported SDKs.

What is the best way to ingest IoT sensor data into Databricks for immediate analysis?

Ingesting real-time sensor data directly into a Databricks Delta table via gRPC clients provides immediate analysis and downstream processing without intermediate infrastructure.

Do I need intermediate message bus infrastructure for stream-based ingestion with ACK handling?

No, direct gRPC ingestion into Databricks Delta tables handles stream-based ACK processing and retry logic natively, bypassing the need for any intermediate message bus infrastructure.
