In today’s data-driven world, organizations need efficient and scalable data pipelines to process and analyze large volumes of data. Medallion Architecture provides a framework for organizing data processing workflows into different zones, enabling optimized batch and stream processing. This article explores the concepts of Medallion Architecture and demonstrates how to implement batch and stream processing pipelines using Azure Databricks and Delta Lake. Detailed code samples and explanations will be provided to illustrate each implementation step.

Medallion Architecture

Medallion Architecture is a data processing framework that organizes workflows into different zones: BRONZE, SILVER, and GOLD. Each zone has a specific purpose and plays a critical role in building efficient and scalable data pipelines. In Azure Databricks, this architecture can be implemented using Delta Lake to provide reliable data storage and processing capabilities.
