Zeppelin VS Redash

Now we can proceed with the definition of Apache Zeppelin. It is a web-based notebook that enables data-driven, interactive data analytics and collaborative documents with Python, Scala, SQL, Spark, and more. You can execute code and even schedule a job (via cron) to run at regular intervals.

Have you tried Apache Zepellin I remember that you can pretty print spark dataframes directly on it with z.show(df)

I used to use Zeppelin, some kind of Jupyter Notebook for Spark (that supports Parquet). But it may be better alternatives.

Apache Zeppelin

For all who think: What the heck is Apache Zeppelin? Here are some details what the project site says:

Check out Zeppelin. It's similar to Jupyter and allows real-time editing by multiple users. https://zeppelin.apache.org/

It seems like there may be an issue with Watchdog on Apple Silicon.

I am looking for service or tool similiar to Metabase or Redash that allows me to add data source - for example Postgres connection, and create raw SQL queries that can be shared or exposed through API. So instead of keeping raw SQL code somewhere, my other service would call this tool e.g. http://microservice/query=1?param1=xx&page=2 and get the results from the DB. These calls are internal only and part of ETL processes, but of course authentication would be required.

Yeah, a lot of the time I'd agree with you.

This container came about for the Redash project (https://github.com/getredash/redash), which has been stuck on PostgreSQL 9.5 (!) for years.

Moving to a new PostgreSQL container version is easy enough for new installations, but rolling that kind of change out to an existing userbase isn't so pretty.

For people familiar with the command line, PostgreSQL, and Docker then no worries.

But a large number of Redash deployments seem to have been done by people not skilled in those things. "We deployed it from the Digital Ocean droplet / AWS image / etc!"

For those situations, something that takes care of the database upgrade process automatically is the better approach. :)

I have tried Metabase, Redash beore (both self hosted open source versions), from my experience I find Metabase a bit easy to work with.

Regarding visualization tools, sqliteviz has proven to be the best I've found so far. Their web app runs locally but has some trackers, so I run it locally via a simple, static HTTP server. Falcon and Redash seem like overkill for my needs.

Redash seems to be dead or at least in hibernation. There hasn't been a release in over a year.
