Update Databricks Runtime

[William_Scardua]

Hy guys,

I need to upgrade my databricks runtime (current 8.0 😫 )

What the precautions should I take ?

Thank you very much

There is a lot of to read since 8.0 including libraries upgrades https://docs.databricks.com/release-notes/runtime/releases.html

From my experience spark functionality generally don't have breaking changes, regarding other libraries it is so much that it doesn't make sense to go through it. Maybe just test your notebooks under 10.1 and compare results with 8.0

If you want to know the version of Databricks runtime in Azure after creation: Go to Azure Data bricks portal => Clusters => Interactive Clusters => here you can find the run time version. For more details, refer "Azure Databricks Runtime versions".
