Hi,

I have two RDD's with csv data as below :

RDD-1

RDD-2

I need to filter RDD-2 to include only those records where the first column
value in RDD-2 matches any of the first column values in RDD-1

Currently , I am broadcasting the first column values from RDD-1 as a list
and then filtering RDD-2 based on that list.

val rdd1broadcast = sc.broadcast(rdd1.map { uu => uu.split(",")(0)
}.collect().toSet)

val rdd2filtered = rdd2.filter{ h =>
rdd1broadcast.value.contains(h.split(",")(0)) }

This will result in data with first column "101970_5854301838" (last
two records) to be filtered out from RDD-2.

Is this is the best way to accomplish this ? I am worried that for
large data volume , the broadcast step may become an issue. Appreciate
any other suggestion.

Thanks
