Keep-Alive setting for cluster?
Is there some sort of 'keep-alive' settings for Fabric clusters? Like in Databricks, where you can set a timer to stop the cluster after xx amount of idle time.
We're just starting with Fabric, and it's very annoying; after every notebook fired from a pipeline, the cluster shuts down. Since starting a cluster takes a lot of time (2-3 min), our pipelines are very slow.
Any suggestions?

Support for High concurrency in Pipeline should address this. This is currently planned for release around Q2 of calendar year 2024 - What's new and planned for Synapse Data Engineering in Microsoft Fabric - Microsoft Fabric | Microsoft Learn

Hello daniele_tiles ,
We haven’t heard from you on the last response and was just checking back to see if you query was answered.
Otherwise, will respond back with the more details and we will try to help .But is there any control for how long the spark cluster will stay up after the last notebook finishes?
thanks
JB
