Assuming we have 1.6 and 1.7 releases, then spark 2.0 is about 9 months away.
customer will need to upgrade the new Hadoop clusters to Apache 2.6 or later to leverage new spark 2.0 in one year. I think this possible as latest release on cdh5.x, HDP 2.x are both on Apache 2.6.0 already. Company will have enough time to upgrade cluster. +1 for me as well Chester Sent from my iPad > On Nov 19, 2015, at 2:14 PM, Reynold Xin <r...@databricks.com> wrote: > > I proposed dropping support for Hadoop 1.x in the Spark 2.0 email, and I > think everybody is for that. > > https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-11807 > > Sean suggested also dropping support for Hadoop 2.2, 2.3, and 2.4.
