     2. In the **Set alert evaluation behavior** field, specify how long the condition must be true before triggering the alert.
     3. Enter a name in the **Namespace** and **Group** fields to categorize and manage your alert rules. Rules that share the same group will use the same configuration, including the evaluation interval which determines how often the rule is evaluated (by default: every 1 minute). You can modify this interval later in the group settings.

+A Persistent Volume (PV) is a cluster-wide storage resource that ensures data persistence beyond the lifecycle of individual Pods. Persistent volumes abstract the underlying storage details, allowing administrators to use various storage solutions.
 
 Apache Spark® executors require storage space for various operations, particularly to shuffle data during wide operations such as sorting, grouping, and aggregation. Wide operations are transformations that require data from different partitions to be combined, often resulting in data movement across the cluster. During the map phase, executors write data to shuffle storage, which is then read by reducers.

 Remember that there is no one-size-fits-all answer, and the right GPU Instance type will depend on your workload’s unique requirements and budget. It is important that you regularly reassess your choice as your workload evolves. Depending on which type best fits your evolving tasks, you can easily migrate from one GPU Instance type to another.
