Using R with Databricks Connect - posit::conf(2023)

Presented by Edgar Ruiz
Spark Connect, and Databricks Connect, enable the ability to interact with Spark stand-alone clusters remotely. This improves our ability to perform Data Science at-scale. We will share the work in `sparklyr`, and other products, that will make it easier for R users to take advantage this new framework.
Presented at Posit Conference, between Sept 19-20 2023,

Where can I find the master, the cluster ID and a token in the Databricks UI?

This is great. Many thanks! What's the relationship between this method of querying Databricks data vs. the ODBC driver?
