Solution

DDI uses Databricks Data + AI Platform, Unity Catalog, MLflow, and Databricks Model Training to support AI scoring and reporting for behavioral simulations. DDI needed to automate the scoring of behavioral simulations because human assessors took up to two days to review responses and produce reports for leadership-development customers. In practice, the implementation governs access and lineage with Unity Catalog, and runs transformation or AI logic on Databricks Data + AI Platform. Documents, notes, and structured records are consolidated into a governed cloud data layer; Databricks Data + AI Platform applies analytics or model logic. The case study reports Helping companies develop exceptional leaders 10 seconds, to generate a simulation report, down from 48 hours, and 100% increase, showing measurable improvement after the rollout.

Data flow

Documents, notes, and structured records are consolidated into a governed cloud data layer; Databricks Data + AI Platform applies analytics or model logic.

Solution architecture

3 components · 2 layers
  1. Compute
    • Databricks Data + AI Platform Unifies engineering, analytics, and ai processing on one governed platform
    • MLflow Tracks experiments and model lifecycle management for the deployed ai workloads
  2. Governance
    • Unity Catalog Enforces access controls, lineage, and governance across the data and models used in this workflow

Architecture clues

  • Centralized governance and lineage are enforced through Unity Catalog.
  • Helping companies develop exceptional leaders 10 seconds
  • Uses serverless or elastic compute so capacity can scale up and down with workload demand.

Scoring methodology

How scores are calculated

Customer Reference Value measures usefulness as a customer reference. Evidence Confidence measures the quality and traceability of available evidence, not independent verification.

Customer reference value95/100
  • Problem clarity20/20
    Measures whether the customer's operational problem is specific enough to compare.
  • Implementation depth20/25
    Rewards named components, data flow, integrations, and architecture detail.
  • Outcome specificity20/20
    Measures whether the reported benefit is concrete rather than a generic claim.
  • Quantified impact25/25
    6 metrics describe measurable impact.
  • Deployment scale10/10
    Rewards evidence of a live or scaled deployment and meaningful integration scope.
