Beginner | Create Agent on Databricks data

[SinghGS]

Greetings all,

I'm currently exploring Databricks and have just completed the fundamentals. I'm really interested in learning more about custom views, data engineering, and especially how to build agents on top of Databricks data.

As a beginner, I'm a bit unsure about the best learning path to follow to achieve these goals. I’d really appreciate any advice or pointers you could share to help guide me in the right direction.

Thanks
GS

Hello @SinghGS!

• For Data Engineering, check out this post. It covers key concepts and recommends courses to deepen your understanding.
• For Custom Views, explore the documentation here: https://docs.databricks.com/aws/en/views/
  You can also review the tutorial Data Management and Governance with Unity Catalog, which focuses on secure data governance using views and materialized views.
• To learn how to build AI Agents, start by understanding GenAI app concepts, and consider the course Generative AI Engineering with Databricks to learn more about RAG workflows and multi-stage reasoning using LLMs.
  Then build your first agent using the Get started with AI agents [quickstart].
  Also, explore the tutorial Build, evaluate, and deploy a retrieval agent to learn how AI agents retrieve data, run workflows, and reason over your datasets.
