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.

Open source contributions for a Data Engineer?
His newer project, Ballista, was also donated to Apache Arrow. I hope to get the Rust skills to collaborate with him on open source work someday too. He's also doing really cool work on spark-rapids FYI.

I am reading this article https://www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fnins.2015.00492/full and thinking how to create an Amazon EMR infrastructure wih PySpark. Why is the GPU server not one of the nodes in the Apache Spark cluster? Or this is just an abstract view and the nodes are also the GPUs?
The spark-rapids project allows one to run multi-GPU ETL workloads on a Spark cluster. https://github.com/NVIDIA/spark-rapids In such a setup, the GPU nodes are part of the Spark cluster. Multi-GPU nodes are viable, although an executor is currently limited to a single GPU.

Ballista: New approach for 2021
So, in my day job at NVIDIA, I work on the RAPIDS Accelerator for Apache Spark, which is an open-source plugin that provides GPU-acceleration for ETL workloads, leveraging the RAPIDS cuDF GPU DataFrame library.

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.

Unit & integration testing in Databricks
If the majority of your stuff is not UDF-based there is an OS solution to run assertion tests against full data frames called spark-fast-tests. The idea here is similar in that you have a it notebook that calls your actual notebook against a staged input reads the output and compares it to a prefabed expected output. This does take a bit of setup and trial and error but it’s the closest I’ve been able to get to proper automated regression testing in databricks

Show dataengineering: beavis, a library for unit testing Pandas/Dask code
I am the author of spark-fast-tests and chispa, libraries for unit testing Scala Spark / PySpark code.

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
