Key differences between SQL and PySpark

CharacteristicSQLPySpark
SyntaxDeclarative syntax focused on data retrieval and manipulation.Python-based API with a mix of functional and imperative programming styles.
ParadigmRelational database management system (RDBMS) paradigm.Distributed data processing paradigm using Resilient Distributed Datasets (RDDs) and DataFrames.
TypingStrongly typed with predefined data types for columns.Dynamic typing with support for various data types, but can also enforce schema.
PerformanceOptimized for single-node performance and can struggle with large datasets.Designed for distributed computing, scales well with large datasets across clusters.
Libraries and frameworksStandardized language with various implementations (e.g., MySQL, PostgreSQL).Part of the Apache Spark ecosystem, integrates with various libraries for machine learning and data processing.
Community and supportLarge community with extensive documentation and resources.Growing community with strong support from the Apache Foundation and integration with big data tools.
Learning curveRelatively easy to learn for basic queries, but complex for advanced features.Steeper learning curve due to the need to understand distributed computing concepts.
