There is SPARK-26604 we are looking into ________________________________ From: Saisai Shao <sai.sai.s...@gmail.com> Sent: Wednesday, March 6, 2019 6:05 PM To: shane knapp Cc: Stavros Kontopoulos; Sean Owen; DB Tsai; Spark dev list; d_t...@apple.com Subject: Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Spark 2.4.1 (RC2)
Do we have other block/critical issues for Spark 2.4.1 or waiting something to be fixed? I roughly searched the JIRA, seems there's no block/critical issues marked for 2.4.1.

That gives us no choice but to upgrade, if we want to be on the safe side. We have tested 3.0.0 with 1.11 internally and it works but I dont know what it means to run with old clients.

Looking at https://github.com/fabric8io/kubernetes-client#compatibility-matrix it seems like the 4.1.1 client is needed for 1.10 and above. However it no longer supports 1.7 and below. We have 3.0.x, and versions through 4.0.x of the client support the same K8S versions, so no real middle ground here. 1.7.0 came out June 2017, it seems. 1.10 was March 2018. Minor release branches are maintained for 9 months per https://kubernetes.io/docs/setup/version-skew-policy/ Spark 2.4.0 came in Nov 2018. I suppose we could say it should have used the newer client from the start as at that point (?) 1.7 and earlier were already at least 7 months past EOL. If we update the client in 2.4.1, versions of K8S as recently 'supported' as a year ago won't work anymore. I'm guessing there are still 1.7 users out there? That wasn't that long ago but if the project and users generally move fast, maybe not. Normally I'd say, that's what the next minor release of Spark is for; update if you want later infra. But there is no Spark 2.5. I presume downstream distros could modify the dependency easily (?) if needed and maybe already do. It wouldn't necessarily help end users. Does the 3.0.x client not work at all with 1.10+ or just unsupported. If it 'basically works but no guarantees' I'd favor not updating. If it doesn't work at all, hm. That's tough. I think I'd favor updating the client but think it's a tough call both ways.
