Github user jongyoul commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/zeppelin/pull/1265 Concerning those modes, AFAIK, before Zeppelin 0.6.0, Zeppelin has only `shared` mode, but most of users want to run a interpreter with their own, Zeppelin add two modes called `scoped` and `isolated`. The main difference between them is where that interpreter is launched. `scoped` mode launches an interpreter with same process and different thread with its own class loader. Otherwise, `isolated` launches different process. `per user` and `per note` are dimensions to support those modes. @zjffdu I also agree we should try to reduce complexity, but we should try to keep user experience equally. Zeppelin's users are not only individuals but also enterprise. We should consider all of users' experience. And I already argued that issue with @Leemoonsoo, and we conclude that keeping current users' behaviour is more important than making them simple. I suggest we will start to discuss the breaking changes. As you mentioned the above, we should think of the relationship of those components.
