    "excerpt": "Databricks says Unity Catalog applies read and write permissions across training data, checkpoints and logs. It also describes workload isolation and network controls. These are issuer statements about the service’s control model, not an independent security audit or a claim that every configuration is appropriate for sensitive data. AIR usage and costs can be tracked through Databricks billing system tables, alongside other workloads, according to the announcement. Workload‑level records identify where GPU usage is attributed; they do not substitute for checking the applicable rate and deployment conditions. The launch post does not give a complete cloud‑and‑region availability matrix or a pricing schedule. Teams evaluating the October 21 GA release should confirm those details for their environment with the current service documentation or account team.
