Mobilize.Net Announces PySpark (Spark Python) to Snowflake Assessment Tool

SnowConvert for Spark Assessment Tool identifies how close a Spark application is for migration to Snowpark. The tool will inventory all Spark references with either Spark Scala or PySpark code.

BELLEVUE, Wash., Nov. 7, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Today Mobilize.Net announced SnowConvert for Spark Assessment Tool. This tool scans any PySpark code and provides a migration readiness score which tells the percentage of the code which can be converted to Snowpark Python with little or no changes required. The SnowConvert for Spark Assessment Tool is free and can be downloaded at https://www.mobilize.net/products/database-migrations/snowconvert/spark-python-get-started.

Joint Effort Between Snowflake and Mobilize.Net

Mobilize.Net SnowConvert for Spark Assessment Tool is a joint effort between Snowflake and Mobilize.Net with the goal of helping customers and partners understand how ready any Spark workload is for Snowpark.

The following reports are output by the assessment tool:

• File Inventory - This will generate an inventory for all of the files present in the input directory of the tool. This could be any file, not just the ones listed above. Get a breakdown by filetype that includes the source technology, code lines, comment lines, and size of the source files.
• Keyword Counts - A count of all keywords that is present broken out by technology. For example, with a CREATE statement in a SQL file, this file will keep track of all of them. Get a count of how many of each keyword by filetype.
• Spark Reference Inventory - Also, get an inventory of every reference to the Spark API present in Scala or Python code. These references will form the basis for assessing the level of conversion that can be applied to a given codebase.

The following filetypes and code languages can be input into the assessment tool:

• Scala (*.scala)
• Python (*.py and *.ipynb)

• SnowConvert for Spark Qualification Tool documentation page: https://docs.mobilize.net/snowconvert/for-spark-scala/introduction
