- Literal values used in SQL operations are converted to DECIMAL with
the exact precision and scale needed by them.
- The configuration `spark.sql.decimalOperations.allowPrecisionLoss`
has been introduced. It defaults to `true`, which means the new behavior
described here; if set to `false`, Spark uses previous rules, ie. it doesn't
adjust the needed scale to represent the values and it returns NULL if an exact
representation of the value is not possible.
+ - Since Spark 2.3, writing an empty dataframe (a dataframe with 0
partitions) in parquet or orc format, creates a format specific metadata only
file. In prior versions the metadata only file was not created. As a result,
subsequent attempt to read from this directory fails with AnalysisException
while inferring schema of the file. For example :
df.write.format("parquet").save("outDir")
