upgrading spark to 2.4

Dear All,

 

On one particular cluster we have spark 2.3 running(CDH 5.15.1). can it be possible to only upgrade spark to 2.4 ? by remaining on the same CDH version(5.15.1). will it compatible with existing service ?. kindly suggest

Hi @javidshaik 

 

Yes based on cloudera documentation, it is not supported multiple versions under same Cloudera Manager Server.

Hi @javidshaik 

 

CDH 5.x and HDP 2.X version clusters has reached end of life support. Better upgrade your cluster to CDH 6.X/CDP 7.X version.

 

Both CDH 6.X and CDP 7.X clusters will support Spark 2.4 versions.

 

Please refer following documentation:

Hi 

 

As mentioned below, Spark 2.3 -> 2.4 version changes have higher potential of risks.

May i know what are the those risks. It would be more helpful if you share right link for these and also share what the considerations need to be taken while upgrading form spark 1.6 to 2.4 and spark 2.3 to spark 2.4

 

Thanks

Rajesh
