Databricks Runtime 7.5 for ML (EoS)

Note

Support for this Databricks Runtime version has ended. For the end-of-support date, see End-of-support history. For all supported Databricks Runtime versions, see Databricks Runtime release notes versions and compatibility.

Databricks released this version in December 2020.

Databricks Runtime 7.5 for Machine Learning provides a ready-to-go environment for machine learning and data science based on Databricks Runtime 7.5 (EoS). Databricks Runtime ML contains many popular machine learning libraries, including TensorFlow, PyTorch, and XGBoost. It also supports distributed deep learning training using Horovod.

For more information, including instructions for creating a Databricks Runtime ML cluster, see AI and machine learning on Databricks.

Note

These release notes may include references to features that are not available on Google Cloud as of this release.

New features and major changes

Databricks Runtime 7.5 ML is built on top of Databricks Runtime 7.5. For information on what’s new in Databricks Runtime 7.5, including Apache Spark MLlib and SparkR, see the Databricks Runtime 7.5 (EoS) release notes.

Deprecations

• The gorilla package is deprecated and will be removed in an upcoming major release of Databricks Runtime ML.
