Big Data: new features

Feature

Description

Available in
Assume Role configuration for Databricks 5.5 LTS and 6.4 distributions

When you are running a Job on Databricks 5.5 LTS or 6.4 and you want to write and read data from S3, you can now make your Job temporarily assume a role and the permissions associated with this role.

This allows you not to specify the secret and access keys to Databricks clusters in the tS3Configuration component. You now only have to specify the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the role to assume in the Spark configuration view and enter the bucket name then select the Inherit credentials from AWS check box in the Basic settings view of the tS3Configuration component.

  • Serial Number
  • Token Code
  • Tags
  • Transitive Tag Keys

Topic, partition, and key options available in Kafka components You can now add information about the key and the partition used for the messages in the tKafkaOutput component. The tKafkaInput component will read these information in its output schema thanks to the following new attributes: topic, partition, and key.

This feature allows you to retrieve and show more information in the Kafka message from the topic.

tKafkaCommit available in Spark Streaming Jobs You can now use the tKafkaCommit component in your Spark Streaming Jobs with Spark v2.0 and onwards in the Local Spark mode. This component allows you to manually control when the offset is commited. It enables to have a commit in one go rather than having an auto-commit at a given time interval.
