Spark UI Simulator Not Accessible

guest0 — Tue, 08 Apr 2025 10:18:18 GMT

Hello,

The Spark UI Simulator is not accessible since the last few days. I was able to refer to it last week, at https://www.databricks.training/spark-ui-simulator/index.html. I already have access to partner academy (if that is any relevant).

<Error> <Code>AccessDenied</Code> <Message>Access Denied</Message> <RequestId>[XYZ890[</RequestId> <HostId>[abcxyz==]</HostId> </Error>

It is a very valuable tool and really would appreciate having it to refer to. I was wondering whether it has been removed or it's just a transient issue.

Does have anyone have any further insight? Thank you.

Hello @guest0!

You can refer to this post, which addresses the same issue and outlines a potential workaround.
If the issue persists, I recommend raising a ticket with the Databricks Support Team.

Thank you @Advika, I did refer to that other post earlier and the workaround didn't help. I have raised a ticket with the support team, thanks for the link.

Looks like the Spark UI simulator is no longer available, more over the Apache Spark optimization course also vanished from the Databricks academy. I've seen that there's a new cohort named Databricks optimization but it lacks the depth and experience the earlier one had. Hope Databricks brings it back.

@UN-DE-TEAM I have not found a solution yet. I sent a request to support via the link Advika shared. I'm afraid I am not aware if the ticket is visible anywhere for others to upvote. If I get any response, I will update here for sure.

Just a short update: the request I raised was closed saying there is no active support contract with the org (from the email I used) to look into this. Perhaps someone else could try raising a request using the link above.
