Lightweight dependencies for CDH 6.x
When you run a Job on CDH 6.x distributions, you can reduce the time spent by the Job to be launched when you select the Use lightweight dependencies check box from the Spark configuration tab in the Run view. It reduces the number of libraries to only the Talend libraries. This could prevent issues about dependencies, missing signature, wrong JAR version or missing JAR for example. With this option, you can use another classpath, different from the Cloudera default one, by selecting the Use custom classpath check box and entering the JARs you want to use in a regex syntax separated by a comma.

Using a Hadoop configuration file with Spark Batch and Spark Streaming Jobs You can connect Spark Batch and Spark Streaming Jobs to a Hadoop cluster in the Repository using a configuration JAR file. You specify the path to this file either in the Spark Configuration of the Job or in the Hadoop cluster configuration. This option is available for both Yarn cluster and Yarn client on non-Cloud distributions. Optionally, you can contextualize this connection parameter to automatically connect to the right cluster based on the environment in which you run the Job.
