Azure Databricks vs. Azure Logic Apps

Having access to all databases and tables in one place is what has helped me and my team to function better. The in built functionality/access to SQL and Python is definitely an added bonus! The icing on the cake is the ability to export your data into an Excel spreadsheet for additional analysis. If you have less to no working knowledge of SQL or Python, its better to look at alternatives.

Microsoft Azure Logic Apps was a perfect solution for us to integrate the apps and products we used in our business to create automated workflows which were also complex and very advanced. This was a very new feature for us, and also it reduced our software costs massively and also saved us a lot of time. With the crisis, we were in back then Azure turned out to be the best cost-friendly solution because we only had to pay for what we used!

• Consistently great performance when dealing with huge scale data with the help of spark architecture
• Magic commands such as spark sql, pyspark, scala . This comes really handy in day to day work
• Integration with other Azure services is super smooth and robust

Incentivized

• Connecting to different services using OOB connectors
• Support for HTTP connectors which enables user to leverage RestAPIs
• Readability, i.e., it looks just like a Visio diagram. Even managers or HRs can have a look and get to know what's happening
• It's a Programmer's Lego. It's fun connecting them at the same time getting the work done

Incentivized

• Intuitive interface
• Ease of use
• Providing FAQ or QRGs

• It falls short of alerting capabilities.
• Microsoft Azure should be unclouded with its pricing. We don't always know how much an inclusion will affect the monthly price. So we have to speculate where we are with the price and if we can afford to include another asset.

Azure Logic Apps on the surface are very intuitive. There is definitely room for improvement but it was very well laid out. The main thing with the UI is that its baked into Azure which at times can be a confusing platform to navigate. This is not the fault of Azure Logic Apps for the Azure platform.

As with other Microsoft Azure support, Microsoft Logic Apps is hit or miss depending on the issue you are having. If it's simple then the resolution can be very quick. If it requires an engineer to review, then it will take them quite a while to look up a solution as they dig through.

This is very dependent on the line of work you are in and the unique company requirements, as is the case with everything. We utilize Azure Logic Apps for all of our computing solutions within our domain, and it has always worked flawlessly. One of the simplest clouds to set up and use is by far the most popular.

• Helped reduce time for collecting data
• Reduced cost in maintaining multiple data sources
• Access for multiple users and management of users/data in a single platform

• Moving to Serverless Computing obviously makes the organization get rid of dependent Infra.
• ROI can be seen immediately as the required infra can be decommissioned after a successful quarter run.
• Being deployed as a single entity or single app on Azure Logic Apps, Organizations need to be more careful with controls applied to meet compliance and security posture.
