Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Sparkless is born
Apache Livy - REST API For submitting jobs to a cluster. Used in conjunction with Jupyter or Zeppelin notebooks and you have a multi-tenant SQL only workload — https://livy.apache.org

State of connecting (Jupyter) notebooks to remote Spark 3+ clusters
There’s definitely some patching that still has to happen depending on the version (just found this Spark 3.2 PR), but I presume many folks that actively use it have to maintain their own forks. Latest version of EMR is Spark 3.1.2, but 3.2 is coming soon.

Spark is lit once again
Apache Livy - an open-source REST API for interacting with Apache Spark from anywhere.

Hadoop Clusters to K8S
Spark 3 has some solid support for Kubernetes. Livy is a good addition to Spark on K8S, although support is not merged upstream yet (there's publicly available images and other in the PR). I'd strongly recommend to avoid running HDFS on top of Kubernetes. Either cloud-native buckets or on-premise bucket storage like Minio would be much better suited.

State of connecting (Jupyter) notebooks to remote Spark 3+ clusters
I also ran into https://github.com/exacaster/lighter, and thought I’d give it a go.

Spark is lit once again
Latter was a go-to solution at the time when we were only using Spark on YARN. Sadly Apache Livy is not maintained anymore: it has no K8s support, Spark client is more and more outdated with every passing day. For some time we used @jahstreet's fork which had K8s available. But then we saw that the Livy project hadn't received any updates and we decided to implement our own solution - Exacaster Lighter.
