Hightouch makes it trivial to pull data out of Databricks directly into the business systems that are familiar for business users and their workflows like Google Sheets for our Operations teams and Salesforce for our Support teams. With Hightouch, we use our single source of truth of our organization’s data to drive mission-critical workflows.

Integrating Hightouch with Databricks
Instead of manually exporting static files or building custom data pipelines out of Databricks, data professionals can now focus on driving business value by activating the data in their lakehouse. This integration between Hightouch and Databricks turns the lakehouse into a Customer Data Platform (CDP) and opens up myriad opportunities across business teams including:
- syncing custom audiences to ad platforms for retargeting,
- empowering GTM teams with product usage data,
- sending personalized emails based on customer behavior
- automating business processes
Moving data from Databricks to multiple destinations is easy with Hightouch.
