Run databricks job instantly without waiting job cluster get active

vinaykumar — Tue, 14 Feb 2023 06:06:47 GMT

when we run databricks job it take some time to get job cluster active .

I created pool also and attached with job cluster but still it take time to attached the cluster and job cluster get active to start the job run.

is there any way - we can run databricks job instantly without waiting . ( all purpose cluster can use with all time active minimum work node but all purpose is not advisable to use in production ) .

So is there any way using on demand job cluster - can minimize the waiting time and run job instantly

Hi @vinay kumar ,

We can use serverless cluster to run the job instantly for now serverless cluster is not available in all the region but in future we can use this.

The first-time pool cluster take time for spin up.

If you want instant processing, you will have to have a cluster running all the time.

As mentioned above, Databricks is testing serverless compute for data engineering workloads (comparable to serverless SQL). This fires up a cluster in a few seconds, but is not yet GA.

The closest you can get at the moment is cluster pools.
