Which tool is used by Auto Loader to process data incrementally?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Auto Loader in Databricks utilizes Spark Structured Streaming for processing data incrementally. This allows Auto Loader to efficiently ingest streaming or batch data at scale and to recognize new data as it arrives in cloud storage. Spark Structured Streaming provides the underlying engine that supports various incremental data loading capabilities like schema inference and file notification mode, which are crucial for the dynamic nature of data lakes.
