Amit Vaidya upgraded Spark image versions in the HPEEzmeral/aie-tutorials repository, focusing on Airflow DAG configurations and YAML files for Python and Scala applications. He methodically advanced the Spark image from 3.5.5 to 3.5.5.2, ensuring compatibility with the latest Spark OSS features and reducing maintenance risk. Amit’s work involved careful management of Airflow and Spark integration, leveraging Python, Scala, and YAML to align pipeline configurations and prevent version drift. By maintaining strict traceability through issue tracking and Git commits, he delivered stable, future-proof data engineering pipelines that support evolving Spark capabilities without introducing runtime incompatibilities.

October 2025 (2025-10): Delivered a targeted Spark image upgrade to 3.5.5.2 across HPEEzmeral/aie-tutorials, updating Airflow DAG configurations and YAML files for Python and Scala apps to maintain compatibility with the latest Spark OSS/framework features. This upgrade reduces version drift, enables access to newer Spark capabilities, and strengthens pipeline stability across the data processing stack.
