I am rather new to data connectivity on multiple platforms, my requirement here is simple, I need to be able to access Spark Thrift server via Power BI, can anyone guide me with the required steps for the same?

I've had to integrate quite a few big data & analytics tools, and have a good amount of experience with spark
Typically I look for it on the tableau documentation https://onlinehelp.tableau.com/current/pro/desktop/en-us/examples_sparksql.html
or the tool's docs
https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/power-bi-desktop-november-feature-summary/#spark
but I'm partial to these docs
https://github.com/oracle/learning-library/blob/master/workshops/journey2-new-data-lake/files/18.1.4/pdf/Connecting%20DVD3%20and%20Spark.pdf
You'll need to make sure you've got spark-thift
up and listening to an open port. Then you'll need different information and the type of connection you're using (jdbc
, odbc
...)
This is assuming you've got a preview version of the DirectQuery
