Azure Databricks

Before going to delete the managed resource group let's understand some concepts associated with Azure Databricks Workspace.

What is Managed Resource Group?

This resource group holds all the resources that are required by the managed application. For example, this resource group contains the virtual machines, storage accounts, and virtual networks for the solution. The customer has limited access to this resource group because the customer doesn't manage the individual resources for the managed application.

Is it possible to delete the Managed Resource Group?

When we create a Azure Databricks workspace, by design it will automatically create Databricks Managed resource Group. The managed resource group must exist as this is where your cluster(s) will be created. To ensure that nothing breaks them, they are placed in a separate resource group (managed resource group) that has a super lock on it so you cannot modify anything in it.

What happens if you try to delete the Managed Resource Group?
