Will be interesting to see if Microsoft do anything about that...
What are you your thoughts?
There is a quote from Jessica Hawk (CVP, Data, AI, Digital Applications, Microsoft) in the article: "Microsoft is committed to the open-source community and empowering customers with choice. Databricks has been a strategic partner for years and it's great to see them open-sourcing Unity Catalog. We believe truly open standards with broad industry participation are in customers' best interests. Our collaboration with Databricks continues to elevate Microsoft Azure as the best choice for data and AI workloads,"
