Runs in the customer workspace
Scanner-lite notebooks run inside the customer's Databricks workspace and write diagnostic outputs to a customer-owned Unity Catalog schema.
AI/BI Readiness Scanner for Databricks
This is the technical review hub for Brickcost: setup docs, security posture, connector contracts, MCP interface notes, legal terms, and support policy for the customer-contained Marketplace scanner.
Deployment
Customer-contained scanner package
Access model
Read-only telemetry, no production writes
Reviewer path
Security, pricing, connectors, and MCP docs
Domain Roles
brickcost.sig.ai is the buyer-facing landing page for the cost-recovery and AI-readiness POC narrative. insights.sig.ai is the Databricks Marketplace information and trust center for evaluators, security reviewers, procurement, and technical onboarding.
Read-only scanner mode
Scanner-lite is read-only against operational metadata. Enterprise deployments can generate approved remediation actions only after explicit customer authorization.
Evidence-backed findings
Findings include confidence labels and supporting telemetry so platform, audit, and BI teams can validate them before taking action.
What Scanner-Lite Finds
- Repeated SQL and dashboard intent that suggests missing metric views or data products.
- Candidate metric conflicts across dashboards, aliases, and SQL expressions.
- Shadow or sandbox assets used by recurring business workflows.
- Risky Genie or AI/BI domains where definitions, ownership, or freshness are weak.
- Genie benchmark questions with domain risk, evidence level, and owner-review guidance.
- Materialized-view candidates with query-count, dashboard-count, and bytes-read evidence; dashboard dependency hot spots; and experiment-plan text.
- Serverless attribution-policy gaps, hot-table maintenance candidates, and Lakeflow tier-review prompts.
Generated metric-view DDL and validation SQL, data-product contracts, dollar-denominated savings/payback economics, a 90-day remediation backlog, warehouse sizing, job compute, DBR runtime, Photon, compute-policy, cluster-restart, instance-pool, detailed cost-attribution, and billing-reconciliation detectors belong to the separately deployed private Databricks App or enterprise diagnostic. They are not included in the free scanner-lite notebooks and require the relevant customer telemetry and deployment validation.
Marketplace Readiness Statement
The free scanner-lite package does not send query history, lineage, table names, user activity, or business metadata to Brickcost or any external service. Optional enterprise deployments may support customer-contained Databricks App mode or SaaS-assisted inference only with explicit customer approval.
