Solution : from pyspark . sql . window import Window from pyspark . sql . functions import avg , col # Define a window specification windowSpec = Window . partitionBy ( " product_id " ) . orderBy ( " date " ) . rowsBetween ( - 6 , 0 ) # Calculate the rolling average using the defined window specification df = df . withColumn ( " rolling_avg " , avg ( col ( " sales " ) ) . over ( windowSpec ) ) - - - - # Define a window specification ) # Calculate the rolling average using the defined window specification ) ) Explanation : Window Specification : Window . partitionBy ( " product_id " ) groups the data by product , ensuring the average is computed per product . orderBy ( " date " ) ensures that the data within each group is considered in chronological order . rowsBetween ( - 6 , 0 ) defines the window to consider the current row and the 6 preceding rows ( 7 days in total ) , which is crucial for calculating a rolling average . Rolling Average Calculation : avg ( col ( " sales " ) ) . over ( windowSpec ) computes the average sales over the defined window for each row . This technique is particularly useful in time - series analysis where you want to analyze trends over a moving time window . 2 from pyspark.sql.functions import lower, regexp_replace text"], "[^a-zA-Z0-9\s cleaned_df = df.withColumn("clean_text", lower(regexp_replace(df Scenario 1 : Cleaning Text Data Problem : You need to clean text data in a DataFrame column by removing whitespace , converting text to lowercase , and eliminating punctuation . Solution : from pyspark . sql . functions import lower , regexp_replace cleaned_df = df . withColumn ( " clean_text " , lower ( regexp_replace ( df [ " text " ] , " [ ^a - zA - Z0 - 9 \ s ] " , " " ) ) ) [ " ] " , " " ) ) ) Explanation : lower ( ) converts all text to lowercase . regexp_replace ( ) removes all characters except alphanumeric characters and spaces . This method is used to clean up text data by standardizing its format , making it easier to process or analyze . 3 filled_df = df.withColumn("numeric_column", coalesce(df["numeric_column"], lit(avg_value from pyspark.sql.functions import avg, coalesce avg_value = df.select(avg(df["numeric_column"]).alias("avg collect()[0]["avg Scenario 3 : Handling Null Values in Numeric Data Problem : You want to replace null values in a numeric column with the column's average value . Solution : from pyspark . sql . functions import avg , coalesce # Calculate the average of the column , assuming nulls are ignored in the calculation avg_value = df . select ( avg ( df [ " numeric_column " ] ) . alias ( " avg " ) ) . collect ( ) [ 0 ] [ " avg " ] # Replace nulls with the average value filled_df = df . withColumn ( " numeric_column " , coalesce ( df [ " numeric_column " ] , lit ( avg_value ) ) ) # Calculate the average of the column , assuming nulls are ignored in the calculation " ) ) . " ] # Replace nulls with the average value ) ) ) Explanation : avg ( ) calculates the average , collect ( ) retrieves it as a scalar value , and coalesce ( ) replaces nulls with this average . This approach ensures that your dataset is free of nulls , which can skew analysis or result in errors during further data processing . 4 from pyspark.sql.functions import col, to_date converted_df = df.withColumn("date", to_date(col("date_string"), "MM/dd/yyyy Scenario 2 : Converting Data Types Problem : You have a DataFrame with a column 'date_string' in string format that you need to convert to a Date type . Solution : from pyspark . sql . functions import col , to_date converted_df = df . withColumn ( " date " , to_date ( col ( " date_string " ) , " MM / dd / yyyy " ) ) " ) ) Explanation : to_date ( ) converts a string column to a date format , specified by the date pattern " MM / dd / yyyy " . This conversion is essential for proper date handling in time - series analysis or date - based filtering . 5 unique_df = df.dropDuplicates(["column1", "column2 Scenario 4 : Removing Duplicates Based on Specific Columns Problem : You need to de - duplicate records in a DataFrame , considering only a subset of columns for identifying duplicates . Solution : unique_df = df . dropDuplicates ( [ " column1 " , " column2 " ] ) " ] ) Explanation : dropDuplicates ( ) with specific column names ensures that rows are considered duplicates only if the specified columns match . This method is useful when you want to remove duplicates based on key attributes without considering the entire row . 6 from pyspark.sql.functions import broadcast optimized_join_df = df_large.join(broadcast(df_small), df_large["key"] == df_small["key Scenario 6 : Optimizing Joins with Broadcast Variables Best Practices for Scalable Data Processing Problem : You need to join a large DataFrame with a small DataFrame efficiently in a Spark job to prevent excessive shuffling and optimize the processing time . Solution : from pyspark . sql . functions import broadcast # Assuming df_large is the large DataFrame and df_small is the small DataFrame optimized_join_df = df_large . join ( broadcast ( df_small ) , df_large [ " key " ] = = df_small [ " key " ] ) # Assuming df_large is the large DataFrame and df_small is the small DataFrame " ] ) Explanation : Broadcast Join : Using broadcast ( df_small ) is a technique where the small DataFrame is broadcasted to all the worker nodes in the cluster . This means every node has a local copy of the smaller DataFrame , which reduces the need for shuffling the data of the larger DataFrame across the network when performing the join . Performance Benefit : Broadcast joins are highly beneficial when the right - hand side DataFrame is significantly smaller than the left - hand side DataFrame . It minimizes the volume of data transfer and can drastically improve the performance of the join operation . This method is an example of leveraging Spark's broadcast capabilities to optimize join operations in large - scale data environments . It's a powerful technique for improving the efficiency and speed of data processing tasks that involve combining datasets of disparate sizes .
