Auto Loader is a Structured Streaming source that incrementally and efficiently processes new data files as they arrive in cloud storage. It supports both Python and SQL in Delta Live Tables, which are ideal for building streaming data pipelines. Auto Loader can handle near real-time ingestion of millions of files per hour and provide exactly-once guarantees when writing data into Delta Lake. Auto Loader is not designed for dashboard, machine learning, serverless, or batch workloads, which have different requirements and characteristics. References: What is Auto Loader?, Delta Live Tables
