Hi Maheer, Thanks for this wonderful Databricks series. I have one doubt , I have a good understanding of SQL and Pandas, would the knowledge of these 2 be sufficient or do I need to learn spark as well
Hello. Great video. Thank you. Question: Is there a way to persist the results of dbutils.data.summarize()? Or do you have knowledge of a similar tool/library that we can persists its results?
