We upgraded Databricks
from 10.3
to 10.4 LTS
. But the python
version did not change from python 3.8.10
.
Question : In Databricks - version 10.4
, how can we upgrade the python version from python 3.8.10
to python 3.10
?
UPDATE : I would like to use some new functionalities offered in python 3.10 such as match case Statement .
It might not be possible to upgrade the version of python inside a Databricks cluster . Each cluster have a pre-defined configuration which consist of specific versions of Spark, Scala and Python
.
We upgraded Databricks from 10.3 to 10.4 LTS. But the python version did not change from python 3.8.10
3.8.10
. One solution would have been to Edit the cluster
to change to Databricks runtime which supports required configuration. To do this Navigate to compute -> click on your cluster -> edit
and choose required databricks runtime.
But currently, the highest python version supported in Azure databricks is Python 3.9.5
by Databricks runtime 11.1
. Refer to this Microsoft documentation to understand more about features and configurations of Databricks runtimes
You might be able to install python 3.10.5 on a Docker image that a cluster can utilise instead of the standard runtime.
https://docs.databricks.com/clusters/custom-containers.html
You can build upon the minimal configuration. I have made a minimal example
FROM databricksruntime/minimal:experimental
# Installs python 3.10 and virtualenv for Spark and Notebooks
RUN apt-get update \
&& apt-get install -y \
python3.10 \
virtualenv \
&& apt-get clean \
&& rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/* /tmp/* /var/tmp/*
# Initialize the default environment that Spark and notebooks will use
RUN virtualenv -p python3.10 --system-site-packages /databricks/python3
# Specifies where Spark will look for the python process
ENV PYSPARK_PYTHON=/databricks/python3/bin/python3
You will need to install all other python libraries, so the process is a bit more tedious.
