Can Glue Interactive Notebook support Spark Scala?

0

The documentations only show PySpark examples. Is Spark Scala supported? If not, will that be coming in the future?

Glue interactive notebooks don't have the ability to run Scala code in the web console. These are the only kernels that are supported currently. Enter image description here

But you can use the computing power of Glue from your local system. If you install your local jupyter, you can use the Scala kernel, you can then use an IDE(Such as Visual Studio Code) on top if you want. Please see these links for more information

  1. to setup a local interactive session https://docs.aws.amazon.com/glue/latest/dg/interactive-sessions.html
  2. to setup VS Code https://docs.aws.amazon.com/glue/latest/dg/interactive-sessions-vscode.html - please change language and kernel to Scala

  • The answer is correct if we are referring to Glue Studio Notebooks, the screenshot is confusing, though.
