Workspace UI upload, volumes, and Marketplace install

Add Data in the UI

The exam wants you to use the Databricks Workspace UI to upload a file. Small CSV/JSON/Excel (depending on UI) lands in a volume or becomes a Delta table. This is for ad-hoc / laptop-scale data. It is the wrong tool for nightly terabyte dumps.

Volumes are governed non-tabular files under catalog.schema.volume. After upload you can read_files / CREATE TABLE AS SELECT into Delta.

Marketplace vs UI upload

Marketplace installs a product (partner or internal listing) into UC. UI upload is *your* file. Both still require privileges to query.
