feature

Databricks now allows users to set maintenance windows for continuous Lakeflow pipelines. This feature provides control over when the platform applies updates, such as new runtime versions and serverless infrastructure maintenance, that necessitate a pipeline restart. Users can configure a specific day, start hour, and time zone for a one-hour window via the Jobs UI, Pipelines UI, or Jobs REST API. This enables engineers to manage operational impact by scheduling updates during off-peak times.
