Roni Fontaine, et al, announce Hortonworks Data Platform 2.6.3:
First, in this release, we made huge strides with regards to Data Science. This includes:
-
Apache Spark 2.2 is GA. This enhances the stability of Spark for structured streaming.
-
Apache Zeppelin 0.7.3 is GA. This provides support for notebooks stored in HDFS, and improves the scalability and multi-user support.
