Both Qubole and Databricks are solving the same problem – enabling analytics and machine learning on data lakes. Moreover, if you are here because you are evaluating Qubole vs. Databricks or looking for Databricks alternatives, you are at the right place. There are many who love us more than Databricks due to choice and openness, we bring to the table.
“The biggest difference is our approach. Qubole is built on the foundation of openness and flexibility of choice.
