Hi Community,
Can someone let me know if its possible to create compute clusters in Databricks Free Edition. It was available in the old Databricks Community Edition.
This is quite important as a lot of my code relies on spark executions.

Hi @Carlton ,
Unfortunately, in Free Edition only serverless compute is available. So you can't create classic compute like in Community Edition.
If you need an access to classic compute you can try Databricks trial (free for 14 days) or get access to regular Databricks. Or if you don't need any databricks specific options and you want only learn pyspark you can use docker container with preconfigured pyspark 🙂
