Liquibase Partners With Databricks to Bring Modern Change Management to the Lakehouse
Liquibase Pro and the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform help data teams automate and govern schema changes with the speed and control today's data products require. AUSTIN, Texas, May 15, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Liquibase, the leader in Database DevOps, today announced the launch of the Liquibase Pro Extension for Databricks, a new integration with the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform designed to help data and platform teams manage schema changes in Databricks SQL with greater speed, structure, and confidence. As more organizations rely on Databricks to power mission-critical analytics, AI workloads, and production-grade data products, database change has become a growing challenge. Most teams still rely on notebooks, SQL scripts, and ticket-based processes to make updates. These manual workflows introduce risk, increase complexity, and delay delivery. "Data teams need to move faster and without putting their business at risk. Liquibase Pro delivers exactly that, bringing structured change management to the Lakehouse so teams can accelerate delivery, safely," said Kevin Chappell, VP of Strategic Partnerships at Liquibase. "Liquibase Pro gives teams a repeatable, safe way to deliver database changes with the same speed and discipline they expect everywhere else in their stack." With this new offering, Liquibase brings modern change automation directly into the Databricks environment. It helps teams move faster while maintaining control, auditability, and compliance. Key capabilities include: Version-controlled deployments of SQL objects and Python-based UDFs Support for Unity Catalog, Time Travel, volumes, and CLONE TABLE operations Environment-specific configuration to prevent drift across dev, staging, and production Built-in changelog validation, policy enforcement, and audit trails Elimination of notebook and script-based deployment workflows "As more organizations standardize on lakehouse architecture for analytics and AI workloads, managing schema changes consistently becomes a critical part of delivering trusted data intelligence," said Ariel Amster, Director, Strategic Technology Partners at Databricks. "This solution from Liquibase helps our customers simplify change management while benefiting from the Databricks Data Intelligence Platform's best-in-class governance capabilities." The Liquibase Pro Extension for Databricks is available now for Databricks customers. To learn more, visit Additional Resources: In NYC on June 5, 2025?

NFL quarterback forced to apologize to Rory McIlroy 'five times' for bizarre New Orleans incident
A strange encounter in New Orleans between Rory McIlroy and Derek Anderson left the former NFL quarterback groveling to the new Masters champion, it has been revealed. The story emerged from Anderson himself after he opened up on his experience caddying for Kevin Chappell at the recent Zurich Classic in New Orleans. Chappell was a late replacement for Billy Horschel, meaning that Anderson suddenly found himself on the bag for Chappell alongside McIlroy in his first tournament since his historic Masters victory. Anderson played the first two rounds alongside McIlroy and his playing partner Shane Lowry, who were also the defending champions of the Louisiana tournament. 'I felt 5-foot-1-inches tall,' Anderson said, reflecting on his error in an appearance on the Subpar podcast. 'I'll set the scene a little bit. Kevin hit that shot on 17 on Friday. Shane missed the hosel by an inch. He's short right. And I kind of like walked back and I'm kind of not really sure where to go, because the flag was over there and Shane's chipping. 'And I kind of just want to go put this bag down, get my guy's putter, let's get this over with. So I go behind the green and Michael Collins (of ESPN) says something to me, and Rory's chipping from the front-right of the green, right back at me. 'Collins says something and I like look down, and I don't even know what he's saying, and all of a sudden I hear from 40 yards away, "DA! Stop moving!"' It was Chappell, calling out to his caddy. Anderson continued: 'I was like "oh s***". I grabbed the bag and went right behind the camera guy and I just stood there and I froze. 'I didn't even know what to do, what am I doing, oh my God, there's all these people here. Kinda freaking out. 'Meanwhile, Rory had stepped off the chip. Apparently, when I looked down I bothered him. And then he steps up and proceeds to lay sod over it, and I'm like, Oh no. And then they make bogey. 'We were walking off, and I tapped McIlroy with the putter like, "I'm so sorry, dude". 'Going up 18, I'm just trying to stay as far away from him as I could the rest of the way. I apologized to him like five times.' Derek Anderson will always remember getting in Rory McIlroy's way at the Zurich because Shane Lowry is never going to let him forget it. �� The NFL QB turned PGA Tour caddie joined the show to talk about his journey to Kevin Chappell's bag with @ColtKnost and @thesleezyman. — Subpar (@golf_subpar) May 7, 2025 In his time on the football field, Anderson was drafted by the Baltimore Ravens but was waived monthslayer before the Cleveland Browns took him. He also spent time with the Arizona Cardinals, Carolina Panthers and Buffalo Bills, where he was a mentor and backup to none other than Josh Allen in his rookie season. McIlroy, meanwhile, is gearing up for the second major of the season next week at Quail Hollow in North Carolina. In perhaps an ominous sign for the rest of the field at the US Open, McIlroy has enjoyed four victories across his career at the course.
