Spark installation in standalone mode in DSS

Paulami

Hi, Our Dataiku is not connected to Hadoop or Kubernetes cluster. Can I still install spark in local DSS server?

Yes, this can be done but it is not a recommended setup. The documentation covers the use of an unmanaged Spark on Kubernetes:

You do need to install the Spark standalone binary:
