What things are called now

1. Mosaic AI Vector Searchuntil Jun 2026Vector indexes over Delta tables, queried by embedding similarity.
2. AI Searchuntil Sep 2026Renamed when full-text indexes arrived, which need no embeddings at all.
3. Databricks AI Searchcurrent

The Generative AI Engineer Associate guide predates the rename and says Vector Search.

1. Mosaic AI Gatewayuntil 2026Rate limits, guardrails, usage tracking and payload logging in front of model endpoints.
2. Unity GatewaycurrentGenerally available since August 2026, with governed model services as Unity Catalog securables.

The Generative AI Engineer Associate guide says AI Gateway. The old per-endpoint configuration page is now marked legacy in the docs.

1. Genie spacesuntil Jul 2026A curated space where business users ask questions in natural language.
2. Genie AgentscurrentRenamed as the spaces became agents with tools and a knowledge layer.

The Data Analyst Associate guide says Genie spaces.

1. Delta Sharinguntil Jun 2026The open protocol for sharing tables across organisations and platforms.
2. OpenSharingcurrentRenamed alongside the open-source release of the wider sharing standard.

Every exam guide and most blog posts still say Delta Sharing.

1. Databricks Oneuntil Apr 2026The simplified workspace for business users, with no compute or notebooks in sight.
2. Genieuntil Jun 2026Briefly just "Genie", which collided with the Genie Agents name.
3. Genie OnecurrentCurrent name for the consumer entry point: dashboards, chat and apps in one place.

Two renames in three months, so material from early 2026 may use any of the three names.

1. Dimensionsuntil May 2026What a Genie Agent called the columns you can group and filter by.
2. FieldscurrentSame thing, renamed inside Genie Agents and in metric views.

A small rename, but the Data Analyst Associate questions about Genie use the old word.

1. Mosaic AI Agent Frameworkuntil 2026The set of APIs and conventions for writing an agent as ordinary Python.
2. Custom agentscurrentThe documentation section is now Custom Agents, and no product carries the Agent Framework name.

The Generative AI Engineer Associate guide still says Agent Framework, and so does most written material. The concepts did not change; the name did.

1. Lakehouse Monitoringuntil 2026Scheduled statistics and drift metrics for a table.
2. Data profilingcurrentNow one half of Unity Catalog data quality monitoring, next to anomaly detection.

The docs still say "Data profiling was formerly known as Lakehouse Monitoring".

1. Delta UniForm (Universal Format)until 2026Generates Iceberg metadata next to Delta, so Iceberg clients can read the same files.
2. Iceberg readscurrentThe feature name today. UniForm survives as the name of the metadata layer underneath.

Written material says UniForm, and so does the table property. The docs page is now titled around Iceberg reads instead.

1. Mosaic AI Model Serving, Mosaic AI Vector Search, Mosaic AI Agent Frameworkuntil 2026The Mosaic AI umbrella came from the MosaicML acquisition and covered the whole AI stack.
2. Model Serving, AI Search, Agent BrickscurrentThe Mosaic AI prefix has been dropped from the AWS documentation.

Every AI exam guide and most blog posts still write Mosaic AI in front of these names. They are the same products.

1. Online tablesuntil 2026Low-latency copies of a feature table for real-time serving.
2. Online Feature StorecurrentNow backed by Lakebase, provisioned with create_online_store and fed by publish_table.

The Machine Learning Associate guide predates the change and says online tables. The old documentation URL now redirects.

1. Databricks Asset Bundles (DABs)until Mar 2026The name in the CLI, in most repositories and in every tutorial so far.
2. Declarative Automation BundlescurrentRenamed as the scope widened beyond deploying jobs and pipelines.

The command is still databricks bundle, and the file is still databricks.yml, so in practice you will keep hearing DABs.

1. Databricks Assistantuntil Mar 2026The in-product AI helper in notebooks, the SQL editor and dashboards.
2. Genie CodecurrentRenamed when it gained agentic, multi-step capabilities.

Anything written before March 2026 calls it Databricks Assistant.

1. Agent Bricks: Multi-Agent Supervisoruntil Feb 2026
2. Supervisor AgentcurrentThe Agent Bricks component that routes a request across several agents.

Recent enough that most written material still uses the longer name.

1. Delta Live Tables (DLT)until Jun 2025The name every exam guide and tutorial written before mid-2025 uses.
2. Lakeflow Declarative Pipelinesuntil Nov 2025First Lakeflow-era name, still the wording in some breadcrumbs.
3. Lakeflow Spark Declarative PipelinescurrentCurrent name. The docs also shorten it to "Lakeflow pipelines".

Exam guides still say Delta Live Tables. The SKUs still start with DLT and the event log keeps dlt in its schema names, so the old name is not going away.

1. Databricks Jobsuntil 2025The original name, still the one in the REST API paths and in the SDK.
2. Databricks Workflowsuntil Jun 2025The name the whole orchestration surface carried for years, and the one most exam guides use.
3. Lakeflow JobscurrentCurrent name, part of the Lakeflow family with Connect and the declarative pipelines.

Exam guides and the certification portal still say Workflows. The docs no longer mention the old name at all, which makes it easy to think they are two products.

1. APPLY CHANGESuntil 2025The declarative pipeline API for change data capture, with the same syntax.
2. AUTO CDCcurrentSame behaviour, new name. The old API still works.

The docs are explicit: the AUTO CDC APIs replace the APPLY CHANGES APIs and have the same syntax. Exam questions written earlier say APPLY CHANGES, and the answer is the same either way.

1. Shared and Single useruntil 2025What the cluster access modes were called when Unity Catalog arrived.
2. Standard and dedicatedcurrentStandard is the multi-user, Lakeguard-isolated mode; dedicated is one user or one group.

Exam questions and older material say Shared and Single user. The cluster UI now says Standard and Dedicated, which is the same thing renamed.
