SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

This Skill automates the creation of Databricks data layer naming conventions and object creation standards, ensuring consistency and compliance across the data platform.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persistent Table Creation: Automatically generate names for persistent EXTERNAL tables based on ADLS storage paths.
  • View Naming: Standardize view names according to BI-Customer SQL conventions.
  • Semantic Layer Objects: Build views, functions, and KPI objects in the semantic layer schemas with guided prompts.
  • Mandatory UpdateDate Column: Enforce the inclusion of an UpdateDate column in all persistent tables.
  • Interactive Object Name Builder: Guide users through the process of naming and creating objects with mandatory tags and descriptions.

Quick Start

Use the @NamingConvention skill to create a new persistent table for data in the 'DE_OUTPUT/AllSuccess' path.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate Databricks table naming conventions for ETL processes?

Automate Databricks table naming conventions by providing ADLS paths, domains, layers, entities, and grains to generate standardized persistent EXTERNAL table names. This ensures consistent object creation standards across your data platform.

What is the standard naming convention for semantic layer objects in data warehousing?

Semantic layer object naming conventions standardize the creation of views, functions, and KPI objects in semantic layer schemas. They require mandatory tags and descriptions to maintain consistency across BI-Customer SQL conventions.

How do I enforce an UpdateDate column when creating persistent tables in Databricks?

Enforce an UpdateDate column in persistent tables by applying automated object creation standards. The interactive builder mandates this column during the generation of persistent EXTERNAL tables to ensure data tracking consistency.

Do I need ADLS paths to standardize view names for BI-Customer SQL conventions?

ADLS paths are required inputs to standardize view names according to BI-Customer SQL conventions. You must also provide domains, layers, entities, and grains to accurately drive the interactive object name builder.

Can I build KPI objects in the semantic layer schema without manual coding?

Build KPI objects in the semantic layer schema without manual coding by using guided interactive prompts. The automation generates the necessary semantic layer views and functions while applying mandatory tags and descriptions.
