Databricks on AWS vs Google Cloud Dataproc
Developers should learn and use Databricks on AWS when working on big data projects that require scalable data processing, real-time analytics, or machine learning workflows in a cloud-native environment meets developers should use dataproc when they need to process large-scale data workloads using open-source frameworks like spark or hadoop without managing the underlying infrastructure. Here's our take.

Databricks on AWS
Nice PickDevelopers should learn and use Databricks on AWS when working on big data projects that require scalable data processing, real-time analytics, or machine learning workflows in a cloud-native environment
Pros
- +It is ideal for use cases such as building ETL pipelines, performing exploratory data analysis, training ML models at scale, and enabling collaborative data science teams, especially in organizations already invested in the AWS ecosystem for its reliability and cost-effectiveness
- +Related to: apache-spark, delta-lake
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Google Cloud Dataproc
Developers should use Dataproc when they need to process large-scale data workloads using open-source frameworks like Spark or Hadoop without managing the underlying infrastructure
Pros
- +It's ideal for batch processing, machine learning, and ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipelines, especially in environments already leveraging Google Cloud for data storage and analytics
- +Related to: apache-spark, apache-hadoop
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Databricks on AWS if: You want it is ideal for use cases such as building etl pipelines, performing exploratory data analysis, training ml models at scale, and enabling collaborative data science teams, especially in organizations already invested in the aws ecosystem for its reliability and cost-effectiveness and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Google Cloud Dataproc if: You prioritize it's ideal for batch processing, machine learning, and etl (extract, transform, load) pipelines, especially in environments already leveraging google cloud for data storage and analytics over what Databricks on AWS offers.
