Thanks Sathish. Before you responded, I came up with this solution:
# A function to take in one row and return the expanded ranges: def processRow(x): ... return zip(list_of_ip_ranges, list_of_registry_ids) # and then in spark, processed_rdds = spark_df_of_input_data.rdd.flatMap(lambda x: processRow(x)) processed_df = (processed_rdds.toDF().withColumnRenamed('_1','ip').withColumnRenamed('_2','registryid')) And then after that I split and subset the IP column into what I wanted.
