Thanks Jeff,

rowNumber is a function in org.apache.spark.sql.functions link
<https://spark.apache.org/docs/1.4.0/api/scala/index.html#org.apache.spark.sql.functions$>

I will try to use monotonicallyIncreasingId and see if it works.

You’d better to use join to correlate 2 data frames : Yes, thats why I
thought of adding row number in both the DataFrames and join them based on
row number. Is there any better way of doing this? Both DataFrames will
have same number of rows always, but are not related by any column to do
join.

Thanks and Regards,
Vishnu Viswanath
