Custom Script in Azure Data Factory & Databricks

Copper Contributor

Hi,

I have a requirement to parse a lot of small files and load them into a database in a flattened structure. I prefer to use ADF V2 and SQL Database to accomplish it. The file parsing is already done using Python script and I wanted to orchestrate it in ADF. I could see an option of using Python Notebook connector to Azure Databricks in ADF v2. May I ask if I will be able to just run a plain Python script in Azure Databricks through ADF? If I do so, will I just run the script in Databricks cluster's driver only and might not utilize the cluster's full capacity. I am also thinking of calling Azure functions as well. Please advise which one is more appropriate in this case.
