SELECT

SELECT * FROM table df.select("*")

SELECT DISTINCT column(s) FROM df.select("column(s)").distinct()

DDL operations

Concept SQL PySpark

In PySpark, the data types are similar,


INT: for integer values
but are represented differently.
BIGINT: for large integer values
FLOAT: for floating point values
DOUBLE: for double precision IntegerType: for integer values
floating point values LongType: for long integer values
CHAR: for fixed-length character FloatType: for floating point values
Datatypes
strings DoubleType: for double precision floating
VARCHAR: for variable-length point values
character strings
StringType: for character strings
DATE: for date values
TimestampType: for timestamp values
TIMESTAMP: for timestamp values
DateType: for date values

CREATE TABLE table_name


Create df.write.format("parquet")\
(column_name data_type
Table .saveAsTable("table_name")
constraint);

CREATE TABLE table_name(


column_name data_type In PySpark or HiveQL, primary key constraints
Create PRIMARY KEY, are not enforced directly. However, you can use
...);
Table with the dropDuplicates() method to remove
Primary duplicate rows based on one or more columns.
If table already exists:
Key ALTER TABLE table_name
ADD PRIMARY KEY df = df.dropDuplicates(["id"])
(column_name);

not natively supported by the DataFrame API,


but there are several ways to achieve the same
Create CREATE TABLE table_name( functionality.
Table with id INT AUTO_INCREMENT,  
Auto name VARCHAR(255), from pyspark.sql.functions import
Increment PRIMARY KEY (id)); monotonically_increasing_id
constraint df = df.withColumn("id",

Adding a from pyspark.sql.functions import lit


ALTER TABLE table_name
column df=df.withColumn("column_name",
ADD column_name datatype;
  lit(None).cast("datatype"))

Modifying ALTER TABLE table_name df=df.withColumn("column_name",


a column MODIFY column_name datatype; df["column_name"].cast("datatype"))

Dropping a
ALTER TABLE table_name
column df = df.drop("column_name")
DROP COLUMN column_name;
 

ALTER TABLE table_name


RENAME COLUMN
old_column_name TO

Rename a
