Databricks and Neon

I used to be a big fan of the platform because back in 2020 / 2021 it really was the only reasonable choice compared to AWS / Azure / Snowflake for building data platforms.

Today it suffers from feature creep and too many pivots & acquisitions. That they are insanely bad at naming features doesn't help at all.

I’d settle for only one bad name per feature from them. Alas, they don’t feel so limited
