What is Databricks Unit (DBU) and how is it calculated exactly?

760 views Asked by At

I have come across multiple blogs regarding DBU but never found a concrete explanation.

As far my understanding right now: Several factors determine how many DBUs a specific workload consumes, including:

  • The amount of data it processes
  • How much memory it uses
  • The vCPU power it takes
  • Your Region Pricing tier, and thus, the type of Databricks services you use.

But is there a specific formula or theory involved?
