             Summary: Spark DataFrames With Cache Key and Value Objects
                 Key: IGNITE-9108
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IGNITE-9108
             Project: Ignite
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: spark
            Reporter: Stuart Macdonald


Add support for _key and _val columns within Ignite-provided Spark DataFrames, 
which represent the cache key and value objects similar to the current 
_key/_val column semantics in Ignite SQL.
 
If the cache key or value objects are standard SQL types (eg. String, Int, etc) 
they will be represented as such in the DataFrame schema, otherwise they are 
represented as Binary types encoded as either: 1. Ignite BinaryObjects, in 
which case we'd need to supply a Spark Encoder implementation for 
BinaryObjects, eg:
 
{code:java}
IgniteSparkSession session = ...
Dataset<Row> dataFrame = ...
Dataset<MyValClass> valDataSet = 
dataFrame.select("_val_).as(session.binaryObjectEncoder(MyValClass.class))
{code}
Or 2. Kryo-serialised versions of the objects, eg:
 
{code:java}
Dataset<Row> dataFrame = ...
DataSet<MyValClass> dataSet = 
dataFrame.select("_val_).as(Encoders.kryo(MyValClass.class))
{code}
Option 1 would probably be more efficient but option 2 would be more idiomatic 
Spark.
 
The rationale behind this is the same as the Ignite SQL _key and _val columns: 
to allow access to the full cache objects from a SQL context.
