Answer: Control plane

The correct answer is the Control Plane. Databricks operates most of its services out of a control plane and a data plane. It's important to note that serverless features like SQL Endpoint and DLT compute use shared compute in the Control plane. The Control Plane is stored in Databricks Cloud Account and includes the backend services that Databricks manages in its own Azure account. Notebook commands and many other workspace configurations are stored in the control plane and encrypted at rest. On the other hand, the Data Plane is stored in the Customer Cloud Account and is where your data resides and is processed. Azure Databricks connectors can be used so that your clusters can connect to external data sources outside of your Azure account for data ingestion or storage.
