Tutorial: Implement the data lake capture pattern to update a Databricks Delta table

This tutorial shows you how to handle events in a storage account that has a hierarchical namespace.

You'll build a small solution that enables a user to populate a Databricks Delta table by uploading a comma-separated values (csv) file that describes a sales order. You'll build this solution by connecting together an Event Grid subscription, an Azure Function, and a Job in Azure Databricks.

In this tutorial, you will:

  • Create an Event Grid subscription that calls an Azure Function.
  • Create an Azure Function that receives a notification from an event, and then runs the job in Azure Databricks.
  • Create a Databricks job that inserts a customer order into a Databricks Delta table that is located in the storage account.

We'll build this solution in reverse order, starting with the Azure Databricks workspace.

Prerequisites

Create a sales order

First, create a csv file that describes a sales order, and then upload that file to the storage account. Later, you'll use the data from this file to populate the first row in our Databricks Delta table.

  1. Navigate to your new storage account in the Azure portal.

  2. Select Storage browser->Blob containers->Add container and create a new container named data.

  3. In the data container, create a directory named input.

  4. Paste the following text into a text editor.

    InvoiceNo,StockCode,Description,Quantity,InvoiceDate,UnitPrice,CustomerID,Country
    536365,85123A,WHITE HANGING HEART T-LIGHT HOLDER,6,12/1/2010 8:26,2.55,17850,United Kingdom
    
  5. Save this file to your local computer and give it the name data.csv.

  6. In storage browser, upload this file to the input folder.

Create a job in Azure Databricks

In this section, you'll perform these tasks:

  • Create an Azure Databricks workspace.
  • Create a notebook.
  • Create and populate a Databricks Delta table.
  • Add code that inserts rows into the Databricks Delta table.
  • Create a Job.

Create an Azure Databricks workspace

In this section, you create an Azure Databricks workspace using the Azure portal.

  1. Create an Azure Databricks workspace. Name that workspace contoso-orders. See Create an Azure Databricks workspace.

  2. Create a cluster. Name the cluster customer-order-cluster. See Create a cluster.

  3. Create a notebook. Name the notebook configure-customer-table and choose Python as the default language of the notebook. See Create a notebook.

Create and populate a Databricks Delta table

  1. In the notebook that you created, copy and paste the following code block into the first cell, but don't run this code yet.

    Replace the appId, password, tenant placeholder values in this code block with the values that you collected while completing the prerequisites of this tutorial.

    dbutils.widgets.text('source_file', "", "Source File")
    
    spark.conf.set("fs.azure.account.auth.type", "OAuth")
    spark.conf.set("fs.azure.account.oauth.provider.type", "org.apache.hadoop.fs.azurebfs.oauth2.ClientCredsTokenProvider")
    spark.conf.set("fs.azure.account.oauth2.client.id", "<appId>")
    spark.conf.set("fs.azure.account.oauth2.client.secret", "<password>")
    spark.conf.set("fs.azure.account.oauth2.client.endpoint", "https://login.microsoftonline.com/<tenant>/oauth2/token")
    
    adlsPath = 'abfss://data@contosoorders.dfs.core.windows.net/'
    inputPath = adlsPath + dbutils.widgets.get('source_file')
    customerTablePath = adlsPath + 'delta-tables/customers'
    

    This code creates a widget named source_file. Later, you'll create an Azure Function that calls this code and passes a file path to that widget. This code also authenticates your service principal with the storage account, and creates some variables that you'll use in other cells.

    Note

    In a production setting, consider storing your authentication key in Azure Databricks. Then, add a look up key to your code block instead of the authentication key.

    For example, instead of using this line of code: spark.conf.set("fs.azure.account.oauth2.client.secret", "<password>"), you would use the following line of code: spark.conf.set("fs.azure.account.oauth2.client.secret", dbutils.secrets.get(scope = "<scope-name>", key = "<key-name-for-service-credential>")).

    After you've completed this tutorial, see the Azure Data Lake Storage article on the Azure Databricks Website to see examples of this approach.

  2. Press the SHIFT + ENTER keys to run the code in this block.

  3. Copy and paste the following code block into a different cell, and then press the SHIFT + ENTER keys to run the code in this block.

    from pyspark.sql.types import StructType, StructField, DoubleType, IntegerType, StringType
    
    inputSchema = StructType([
    StructField("InvoiceNo", IntegerType(), True),
    StructField("StockCode", StringType(), True),
    StructField("Description", StringType(), True),
    StructField("Quantity", IntegerType(), True),
    StructField("InvoiceDate", StringType(), True),
    StructField("UnitPrice", DoubleType(), True),
    StructField("CustomerID", IntegerType(), True),
    StructField("Country", StringType(), True)
    ])
    
    rawDataDF = (spark.read
     .option("header", "true")
     .schema(inputSchema)
     .csv(adlsPath + 'input')
    )
    
    (rawDataDF.write
      .mode("overwrite")
      .format("delta")
      .saveAsTable("customer_data", path=customerTablePath))
    

    This code creates the Databricks Delta table in your storage account, and then loads some initial data from the csv file that you uploaded earlier.

  4. After this code block successfully runs, remove this code block from your notebook.

Add code that inserts rows into the Databricks Delta table

  1. Copy and paste the following code block into a different cell, but don't run this cell.

    upsertDataDF = (spark
      .read
      .option("header", "true")
      .csv(inputPath)
    )
    upsertDataDF.createOrReplaceTempView("customer_data_to_upsert")
    

    This code inserts data into a temporary table view by using data from a csv file. The path to that csv file comes from the input widget that you created in an earlier step.

  2. Copy and paste the following code block into a different cell. This code merges the contents of the temporary table view with the Databricks Delta table.

    %sql
    MERGE INTO customer_data cd
    USING customer_data_to_upsert cu
    ON cd.CustomerID = cu.CustomerID
    WHEN MATCHED THEN
      UPDATE SET
        cd.StockCode = cu.StockCode,
        cd.Description = cu.Description,
        cd.InvoiceNo = cu.InvoiceNo,
        cd.Quantity = cu.Quantity,
        cd.InvoiceDate = cu.InvoiceDate,
        cd.UnitPrice = cu.UnitPrice,
        cd.Country = cu.Country
    WHEN NOT MATCHED
      THEN INSERT (InvoiceNo, StockCode, Description, Quantity, InvoiceDate, UnitPrice, CustomerID, Country)
      VALUES (
        cu.InvoiceNo,
        cu.StockCode,
        cu.Description,
        cu.Quantity,
        cu.InvoiceDate,
        cu.UnitPrice,
        cu.CustomerID,
        cu.Country)
    

Create a Job

Create a Job that runs the notebook that you created earlier. Later, you'll create an Azure Function that runs this job when an event is raised.

  1. Select New->Job.

  2. Give the job a name, choose the notebook that you created and cluster. Then, select Create to create the job.

Create an Azure Function

Create an Azure Function that runs the Job.

  1. In your Azure Databricks workspace, click your Azure Databricks username in the top bar, and then from the drop-down list, select User Settings.

  2. On the Access tokens tab, select Generate new token.

  3. Copy the token that appears, and then click Done.

  4. In the upper corner of the Databricks workspace, choose the people icon, and then choose User settings.

    Manage account

  5. Select the Generate new token button, and then select the Generate button.

    Make sure to copy the token to safe place. Your Azure Function needs this token to authenticate with Databricks so that it can run the Job.

  6. From the Azure portal menu or the Home page, select Create a resource.

  7. In the New page, select Compute > Function App.

  8. In the Basics tab of the Create Function App page, choose a resource group, and then change or verify the following settings:

    Setting Value
    Function App name contosoorder
    Runtime stack .NET
    Publish Code
    Operating System Windows
    Plan type Consumption (Serverless)
  9. Select Review + create, and then select Create.

    When the deployment is complete, select Go to resource to open the overview page of the Function App.

  10. In the Settings group, select Configuration.

  11. In the Application Settings page, choose the New application setting button to add each setting.

    Add configuration setting

    Add the following settings:

    Setting name Value
    DBX_INSTANCE The region of your databricks workspace. For example: westus2.azuredatabricks.net
    DBX_PAT The personal access token that you generated earlier.
    DBX_JOB_ID The identifier of the running job.
  12. Select Save to commit these settings.

  13. In the Functions group, select Functions, and then select Create.

  14. Choose Azure Event Grid Trigger.

    Install the Microsoft.Azure.WebJobs.Extensions.EventGrid extension if you're prompted to do so. If you have to install it, then you'll have to choose Azure Event Grid Trigger again to create the function.

    The New Function pane appears.

  15. In the New Function pane, name the function UpsertOrder, and then select the Create button.

  16. Replace the contents of the code file with this code, and then select the Save button:

      #r "Azure.Messaging.EventGrid"
      #r "System.Memory.Data"
      #r "Newtonsoft.Json"
      #r "System.Text.Json"
      using Azure.Messaging.EventGrid;
      using Azure.Messaging.EventGrid.SystemEvents;
      using Newtonsoft.Json;
      using Newtonsoft.Json.Linq;
    
      private static HttpClient httpClient = new HttpClient();
    
      public static async Task Run(EventGridEvent eventGridEvent, ILogger log)
      {
         log.LogInformation("Event Subject: " + eventGridEvent.Subject);
         log.LogInformation("Event Topic: " + eventGridEvent.Topic);
         log.LogInformation("Event Type: " + eventGridEvent.EventType);
         log.LogInformation(eventGridEvent.Data.ToString());
    
         if (eventGridEvent.EventType == "Microsoft.Storage.BlobCreated" || eventGridEvent.EventType == "Microsoft.Storage.FileRenamed") {
            StorageBlobCreatedEventData fileData = eventGridEvent.Data.ToObjectFromJson<StorageBlobCreatedEventData>();
            if (fileData.Api == "FlushWithClose") {
                  log.LogInformation("Triggering Databricks Job for file: " + fileData.Url);
                  var fileUrl = new Uri(fileData.Url);
                  var httpRequestMessage = new HttpRequestMessage {
                     Method = HttpMethod.Post,
                     RequestUri = new Uri(String.Format("https://{0}/api/2.0/jobs/run-now", System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("DBX_INSTANCE", EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process))),
                     Headers = { 
                        { System.Net.HttpRequestHeader.Authorization.ToString(), "Bearer " + System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("DBX_PAT", EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process)},
                        { System.Net.HttpRequestHeader.ContentType.ToString(), "application/json" }
                     },
                     Content = new StringContent(JsonConvert.SerializeObject(new {
                        job_id = System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("DBX_JOB_ID", EnvironmentVariableTarget.Process),
                        notebook_params = new {
                              source_file = String.Join("", fileUrl.Segments.Skip(2))
                        }
                     }))
                  };
                  var response = await httpClient.SendAsync(httpRequestMessage);
                  response.EnsureSuccessStatusCode();
            }
         }
      }
    

This code parses information about the storage event that was raised, and then creates a request message with url of the file that triggered the event. As part of the message, the function passes a value to the source_file widget that you created earlier. the function code sends the message to the Databricks Job and uses the token that you obtained earlier as authentication.

Create an Event Grid subscription

In this section, you'll create an Event Grid subscription that calls the Azure Function when files are uploaded to the storage account.

  1. Select Integration, and then in the Integration page, select Event Grid Trigger.

  2. In the Edit Trigger pane, name the event eventGridEvent, and then select Create Event subscription.

    Note

    The name eventGridEvent matches the parameter named that is passed into the Azure Function.

  3. In the Basics tab of the Create Event Subscription page, change or verify the following settings:

    Setting Value
    Name contoso-order-event-subscription
    Topic type Storage account
    Source Resource contosoorders
    System topic name <create any name>
    Filter to Event Types Blob Created, and Blob Deleted
  4. Select the Create button.

Test the Event Grid subscription

  1. Create a file named customer-order.csv, paste the following information into that file, and save it to your local computer.

    InvoiceNo,StockCode,Description,Quantity,InvoiceDate,UnitPrice,CustomerID,Country
    536371,99999,EverGlow Single,228,1/1/2018 9:01,33.85,20993,Sierra Leone
    
  2. In Storage Explorer, upload this file to the input folder of your storage account.

    Uploading a file raises the Microsoft.Storage.BlobCreated event. Event Grid notifies all subscribers to that event. In our case, the Azure Function is the only subscriber. The Azure Function parses the event parameters to determine which event occurred. It then passes the URL of the file to the Databricks Job. The Databricks Job reads the file, and adds a row to the Databricks Delta table that is located your storage account.

  3. To check if the job succeeded, view the runs for your job. You'll see a completion status. For more information about how to view runs for a job, see View runs for a job

  4. In a new workbook cell, run this query in a cell to see the updated delta table.

    %sql select * from customer_data
    

    The returned table shows the latest record.

    Latest record appears in table

  5. To update this record, create a file named customer-order-update.csv, paste the following information into that file, and save it to your local computer.

    InvoiceNo,StockCode,Description,Quantity,InvoiceDate,UnitPrice,CustomerID,Country
    536371,99999,EverGlow Single,22,1/1/2018 9:01,33.85,20993,Sierra Leone
    

    This csv file is almost identical to the previous one except the quantity of the order is changed from 228 to 22.

  6. In Storage Explorer, upload this file to the input folder of your storage account.

  7. Run the select query again to see the updated delta table.

    %sql select * from customer_data
    

    The returned table shows the updated record.

    Updated record appears in table

Clean up resources

When they're no longer needed, delete the resource group and all related resources. To do so, select the resource group for the storage account and select Delete.
