Encryption at rest is a baseline. Enterprises operating in highly regulated environments must control the root of trust. Lakebase Customer-Managed Keys offers comprehensive management and control across the entire architecture. And unlike traditional databases, Lakebase CMK manages both persistent storage and ephemeral compute. Rotate keys with zero downtime. Revoke access as a cryptographic kill switch. Audit key operations inside your own cloud KMS. Learn how to get started: databricks.com/blog/take-cont…

Unity Catalog and Google BigQuery now support bidirectional catalog federation, giving customers access to the same copy of data from either platform without duplication or data movement. Unified governance applies consistently across both, deepening the interoperability between Databricks and @googlecloud → databricks.com/blog/interoper…

Genie Agent Mode expands the class of questions you can ask of your data. Rather than returning a single query result, it works like a data analyst, planning an approach, testing hypotheses, and iterating toward a well-supported explanation. Ask things like: - Why did our churn rate spike in Q3? - How can we optimize our campaign spend? - What revenue impact should I anticipate if these two supply lines are interrupted? Anyone in your organization can now get real answers to their most complex business questions. databricks.com/blog/introduci…

Database branching in Databricks Lakebase uses copy-on-write storage to create fully isolated environments in seconds without duplicating data. Most teams rely on shared staging databases or slow pg_dump copies that drift from production and make testing unreliable. Lakebase branches give every developer, pull request, and CI test run its own isolated environment, with instant point-in-time recovery and programmable ephemeral databases for AI agents through the same API. databricks.com/blog/database-…
