    @sinam.woo - Thanks for the question and using MS Q&A platform.

    No, Spark pool on Azure Synapse Analytics does not run on AKS. Spark pool is a managed service provided by Azure Synapse Analytics that allows you to run Apache Spark jobs at scale. It is a fully managed service that abstracts away the underlying infrastructure and provides you with a serverless experience.

    For more details, refer to Synapse runtime for Apache Spark lifecycle and supportability

    Hope this helps. Do let us know if you any further queries.
