Hi Jeff & Saisai, Thank you so much for the explanation and they are very helpful, also sorry for not replying in time.
I had read all the links you provided and the impression I got is that, correct me if I am wrong, this feature would not allow different session-kind interacting with each other? What I mean is, if I ran one Scala kind and one Python kind in the same context, unless some kind of persistence it won't be possible to refer a dataframe variable in Python code that was defined in Scala right? The goal I want to achieve is to mix different languages together and run as one integrated spark job within which vars/methods defined in one language can be referred/used in other, because our users might have different programming background. It might sound silly but I am keen to know if that's possible under the current Livy infrastructure. Appreciate it if anyone could answer. Thanks in advance!
