Databricks Asset Bundles are a Databricks CLI feature that lets teams define Databricks projects “as code” using YAML configuration files . In a bundle, metadata is expressed in YAML (for example, a required databricks.yml at the root), and the configuration can declare resources (such as Databricks Jobs/workflows and other supported assets), artifacts , and deployment targets . After defining these YAML manifests, teams use the Databricks CLI to validate, deploy, and run the bundle into a Databricks workspace, which matches the scenario described (YAML + CLI deployment). This approach standardizes how workflows and related resources are packaged and promoted across environments (dev/test/prod) while keeping definitions version-controlled and reproducible. GitHub is only a hosting/version-control platform (not the YAML deployment feature itself), Terraform is a separate IaC tool, and “DataOps” is a methodology rather than a specific Databricks feature.
