Re: RDD and Dataframes
hi, brccosta, databricks have just posted a blog about *RDD, Dataframe and Dataset*, you can check it here : https://databricks.com/blog/2016/07/14/a-tale-of-three-apache-spark-apis-rdds-dataframes-and-datasets.html , which will be very helpful for you I think. *___* Quant | Engineer | Boy *___* *blog*:http://litaotao.github.io <http://litaotao.github.io/?utm_source=spark_mail> *github*: www.github.com/litaotao On Sat, Jul 16, 2016 at 7:53 AM, RK Aduri wrote: > DataFrames uses RDDs as internal implementation of its structure.

Re: RDD and Dataframes
DataFrames uses RDDs as internal implementation of its structure. It doesn't convert to RDD but uses RDD partitions to produce logical plan. -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/RDD-and-Dataframes-tp27306p27346.html Sent from the Apache Spark User List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe e-mail: user-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org
Re: RDD and Dataframes
Thank you for the answer. One of the optimizations of Dataframes/Datasets (beyond the Catalyst) are the Encoders (Project Tungsten), which translate domain objects into Spark's internal format (binary). By using encoders, the data is not managed by the Java Virtual Machine anymore (which increase the memory using with metadata, and the processing time with Garbage Collector actuation). However, if it will be converted to an RDD internally, such RDD will also not be managed by JVM, is that right? Instead, there weren't really optimization with enconders... 2016-07-07 9:10 GMT-03:00 Rishi Mishra : > Yes, finally it will be converted to an RDD internally.

Re: RDD and Dataframes
Yes, finally it will be converted to an RDD internally. However DataFrame queries are passed through catalyst , which provides several optimizations e.g. code generation, intelligent shuffle etc , which is not the case for pure RDDs.

RDD and Dataframes
Dear guys, I'm investigating the differences between RDDs and Dataframes/Datasets. I couldn't find the answer for this question: Dataframes acts as a new layer in the Spark stack? I mean, in the execution there is a conversion to RDD? For example, if I create a Dataframe and perform a query, in the final step it will be transformed into a RDD to be executed in Spark? -- View this message in context: http://apache-spark-user-list.1001560.n3.nabble.com/RDD-and-Dataframes-tp27306.html Sent from the Apache Spark User List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. - To unsubscribe e-mail: user-unsubscr...@spark.apache.org

It's not true. When converting a RDD to dataframe, it only take a few of rows to infer the types, no other collect/repartition will happen. > Just wondering if there's any guidelines for doing this conversion and > whether it's best to do it early to get the performance benefits of > dataframes or weigh that against the size/number of items in the rdd.

is there any significant performance issue converting between rdd and dataframes in pyspark?
In pyspark, when I convert from rdds to dataframes it looks like the rdd is being materialized/collected/repartitioned before it's converted to a dataframe. Just wondering if there's any guidelines for doing this conversion and whether it's best to do it early to get the performance benefits of dataframes or weigh that against the size/number of items in the rdd. Thanks, -Axel
