 Apache Spark pools in Azure Synapse use runtimes to tie together essential component versions such as Azure Synapse optimizations, packages, and connectors with a specific Apache Spark version. Each runtime is upgraded periodically to include new improvements, features, and patches. When you create a serverless Apache Spark pool, select the corresponding Apache Spark version. Based on this, the pool comes preinstalled with the associated runtime components and packages.
 
 The runtimes have the following advantages:
-
 - Faster session startup times
 - Tested compatibility with specific Apache Spark versions
 - Access to popular, compatible connectors and open-source packages
 
 ## Supported Azure Synapse runtime releases
 
-> [!WARNING]  
-> End of Support Notification for Azure Synapse Runtime for Apache Spark 2.4, Apache Spark 3.1 and Apache Spark 3.2.
-> * Effective September 29, 2023, Azure Synapse will discontinue official support for Spark 2.4 Runtimes.
-> * Effective January 26, 2024, Azure Synapse will discontinue official support for Spark 3.1 Runtimes.
-> * Effective July 8, 2024, Azure Synapse will discontinue official support for Spark 3.2 Runtimes.  
-> * After these dates, we will not be addressing any support tickets related to Spark 2.4, 3.1 and 3.2. There will be no release pipeline in place for bug or security fixes for Spark 2.4, 3.1 and 3.2. **Utilizing Spark 2.4, 3.1 and 3.2 post the support cutoff dates is undertaken at one's own risk. We strongly discourage its continued use due to potential security and functionality concerns.**

 > [!TIP]
-> We strongly recommend proactively upgrading workloads to a more recent GA version of the runtime (for example, [Azure Synapse Runtime for Apache Spark 3.4 (GA)](./apache-spark-34-runtime.md)). Refer to the [Apache Spark migration guide](https://spark.apache.org/docs/latest/sql-migration-guide.html).
