Exam DBDEA Topics: jobs Difficulty: medium

When a nightly Lakeflow Job fails, the team already receives an email notification. Operations, however, also needs every failure recorded in its own incident system, which exposes an HTTP endpoint, and the on-call rotation must be paged through PagerDuty. All of this should happen automatically as part of the run. How can the team meet this requirement?

Options (Reading Mode) Click to filter discussion →
  1. A. Keep email as the notification, since Databricks cannot target external systems, and let the incident system poll the jobs API
  2. B. Add a webhook destination to the job's failure notification, so that Databricks posts a JSON payload to the endpoint
  3. C. Add a final task that calls the incident system's endpoint itself at the end of every run
  4. D. Switch the job to a file arrival trigger, because webhook notifications only work for event-triggered jobs
