Are Tables Created by Fivetran Connectors Managed or Unmanaged?

Question

In Databricks, are the tables that are created by the Fivetran connectors present in Databricks or are stored as Parquest files in my Azure storage?

Environment

Databricks destination

Answer

During the destination setup, you can opt to:

• Use the default Databricks File System location registered with the cluster. The tables are managed by Databricks.
• Create Delta tables as external tables. Set the Create Delta tables in an external location toggle to ON and enter the External Location you want to use. The tables are stored in your external Azure storage.
