Overview
Databricks, the leading Lakehouse platform, brings together data engineering, data science, and BI on a single foundation. Outdoo’s (formerly MeetRecord) integration with Databricks allows you to push AI-derived insights from calls and deals directly into Delta tables.
This enables teams to blend conversation intelligence with product usage, CRM, and revenue datasets inside Databricks for deeper analysis, predictive modeling, and automated workflows.
What Can This Integration Do?
- Unify Data in the Lakehouse: Write Outdoo’s analyzed call and deal data directly into Delta tables, queryable via Databricks SQL or notebooks.
- Drive Advanced Analytics: Combine call sentiment, topics, and deal risk scores with product telemetry and financial data for complete pipeline visibility.
- Support Flexible Methods: Connect via Databricks SQL Warehouse endpoints or use APIs/storage stages for custom integrations.
- Automate Syncs: Keep your Delta tables updated in near real-time as new calls are processed and deal data refreshes.
How to Integrate Databricks with Outdoo
Method 1: Direct Databricks SQL Warehouse Connection (Recommended)
- Prepare a SQL Warehouse: In your Databricks workspace, create a SQL Warehouse dedicated to integrations. Note the Server Hostname and HTTP Path.
- Generate an Access Token: Create a Personal Access Token (or Service Principal token) in Databricks with permissions to write to your target catalog and schema.
- Set Up Target Schema: Create a catalog/schema (e.g.
outdoo_data
) where Outdoo will write data. Ensure the integration identity hasCREATE TABLE
andINSERT
privileges. - Connect in Outdoo: In the Outdoo admin panel, choose Databricks as a destination. Enter the Hostname, HTTP Path, Catalog, Schema, and Access Token.
- Start Sync: Outdoo will create Delta tables (e.g.
CALLS
,DEALS
) and begin pushing data, starting with historical records and then near real-time updates. - Verify Data: Run queries like
SELECT * FROM outdoo_data.calls LIMIT 10;
to confirm records are populating.
Method 2: REST API or Cloud Storage Stage (Optional)
- REST API Pull: Use Outdoo’s APIs to pull call/deal data into Databricks notebooks for custom pipelines.
- Cloud Storage Stage: Configure Outdoo to drop JSON exports into S3 or ADLS. Databricks can autoload these files into Delta tables.
Security & Authentication
- Dedicated Credentials: Use a Service Principal or dedicated user token for Outdoo.
- Governance: If using Unity Catalog, grant minimum privileges (
USE CATALOG
,CREATE
,INSERT
).
- Encryption: All connections are secured via HTTPS/TLS.
- Auditing: Monitor integration activity and rotate tokens regularly.
Example Use Cases
- Rep Performance Dashboards: Track call sentiment, talk ratio, and engagement trends alongside win/loss rates.
- Deal Risk Models: Train ML pipelines combining Outdoo’s deal risk scores with CRM history and product usage.
- Forecasting: Correlate call activity and tone with pipeline velocity to improve forecast accuracy.\
- Customer Intelligence: Analyze call transcripts alongside support tickets or product telemetry to identify churn risks or upsell opportunities.
