A data analyst can create multiple visualizations from the same query in Databricks SQL by clicking the + button next to the Results tab and selecting Visualization. Each visualization can have a different type, name, and configuration. To add a visualization to a dashboard, the data analyst can click the vertical ellipsis button beneath the visualization, select + Add to Dashboard, and choose an existing or new dashboard. The data analyst can repeat this process for each visualization they want to add to the same dashboard. References: Visualization in Databricks SQL, Visualize queries and create a dashboard in Databricks SQL

External tables are tables that are defined in the Databricks metastore using the information stored in a cloud object storage location. External tables do not manage the data, but provide a schema and a table name to query the data. To create an external table, you can use the CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE statement and specify the object storage path to the LOCATION clause. For example, to create an external table named ext_table on a Parquet file stored in S3, you can use the following statement:

SQL

CREATE EXTERNAL TABLE ext_table (

col1 INT,

col2 STRING

)

STORED AS PARQUET

LOCATION 's3://bucket/path/file.parquet'
