 ## Databricks
 
-To connect to Databricks, first install [databricks-dbapi](https://pypi.org/project/databricks-dbapi/) with the optional SQLAlchemy dependencies:
+Databricks now offer a native DB API 2.0 driver, `databricks-sql-connector`, that can be used with the `sqlalchemy-databricks` dialect. You can install both with:
 
 ```bash
-pip install databricks-dbapi[sqlalchemy]
+pip install "superset[databricks]"
 ```
 
-There are two ways to connect to Databricks: using a Hive connector or an ODBC connector. Both ways work similarly, but only ODBC can be used to connect to [SQL endpoints](https://docs.databricks.com/sql/admin/sql-endpoints.html).
