Hello Experts, In one of my projects we are having parquet files and we are using spark SQL to get our analytics. I am encountering situation where simple SQL is not getting me what I need or the complex SQL is not supported by Spark Sql. In scenarios like this I am able to get things done using low level spark constructs like MapFunction and reducers.
My question is if I create a JavaSchemaRdd on Parquet and use basic spark constructs, will I still get the benefit of parquets columnar format? Will my aggregation be as fast as it would have been if I have used SQL? Please advice. Thanks & Regards Tridib -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/Running-spark-function-on-parquet-without-sql-tp21833.html Sent from the Apache Spark User List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: user-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: user-h...@spark.apache.org
