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.

Lakehouse architecture in Azure Synapse without Databricks?
I was a Databricks user for 5 years and spent 95% of my time developing Spark code in IDEs. See the spark-daria and spark-fast-tests projects as Scala examples. I developed internal libraries with all the business logic. The Databricks notebooks would consist of a few lines of code that would invoke a function in the proprietary Spark codebase. The proprietary Spark codebase would depend on the OSS libraries I developed in parallel.

Is Spark - The Defenitive Guide outdated?
They spent a lot of effort improving the catalyst engine under the hood too and making it easier to extend and improve it in the future. Making it easy to add your own native code to Spark itself. Shameless plug of a blog post I wrote on this subject which basically reiterates what Matthew Powers, author of Spark Daria and quinn, wrote here.

Ask HN: What are some tools / libraries you built yourself?
I built daria (https://github.com/MrPowers/spark-daria) to make it easier to write Spark and spark-fast-tests (https://github.com/MrPowers/spark-fast-tests) to provide a good testing workflow.
quinn (https://github.com/MrPowers/quinn) and chispa (https://github.com/MrPowers/chispa) are the PySpark equivalents.
Built bebe (https://github.com/MrPowers/bebe) to expose the Spark Catalyst expressions that aren't exposed to the Scala / Python APIs.
Also build spark-sbt.g8 to create a Spark project with a single command: https://github.com/MrPowers/spark-sbt.g8

Open source contributions for a Data Engineer?
I've built popular PySpark (quinn, chispa) and Scala Spark (spark-daria, spark-fast-tests) libraries.

Brainstorming functions to make PySpark easier
We're brainstorming functions to make PySpark easier, see this issue: https://github.com/MrPowers/quinn/issues/83

PySpark OSS Contribution Opportunity
Adding some README documentation to the README should be quite straightforward. Here's a function that needs to be documented: https://github.com/MrPowers/quinn/issues/52 .

Invitation to collaborate on open source PySpark projects
quinn is a library with PySpark helper functions. I need to work through all the open issues / PRs and bump all versions. I should do another release. This library gets around 600,000 monthly downloads.

Pyspark now provides a native Pandas API
Pandas syntax is far inferior to regular PySpark in my opinion. Goes to show how much data analysts value a syntax that they're already familiar with. Pandas syntax makes it harder to reason about queries, abstract DataFrame transformations, etc. I've authored some popular PySpark libraries like quinn and chispa and am not excited to add Pandas syntax support, haha.

Register Native Functions in PySpark
Here's how I added a create_df method to the SparkSession class: https://github.com/MrPowers/quinn/blob/main/quinn/extensions/spark_session_ext.py

Open source contributions for a Data Engineer?
I've built popular PySpark (quinn, chispa) and Scala Spark (spark-daria, spark-fast-tests) libraries.
What are some alternatives?
chispa - PySpark test helper methods with beautiful error messages
Task - A task runner / simpler Make alternative written in Go
spark-rapids - Spark RAPIDS plugin - accelerate Apache Spark with GPUs
Prefect - The easiest way to build, run, and monitor data pipelines at scale.
null - Nullable Go types that can be marshalled/unmarshalled to/from JSON.
spark-fast-tests - Apache Spark testing helpers (dependency free & works with Scalatest, uTest, and MUnit)
fugue - A unified interface for distributed computing. Fugue executes SQL, Python, Pandas, and Polars code on Spark, Dask and Ray without any rewrites.
dagster - An orchestration platform for the development, production, and observation of data assets.
etl-markup-toolkit - ETL Markup Toolkit is a spark-native tool for expressing ETL transformations as configuration
airbyte - The leading data integration platform for ETL / ELT data pipelines from APIs, databases & files to data warehouses, data lakes & data lakehouses. Both self-hosted and Cloud-hosted.
lowdefy - The config web stack for business apps - build internal tools, client portals, web apps, admin panels, dashboards, web sites, and CRUD apps with YAML or JSON.
