Compute aggregates by specifying a series of aggregate columns.
Compute aggregates by specifying a series of aggregate columns. Note that this function by
default retains the grouping columns in its output. To not retain grouping columns, set
spark.sql.retainGroupColumns
to false.
The available aggregate methods are defined in org.apache.spark.sql.functions.
// Selects the age of the oldest employee and the aggregate expense for each department // Scala: import org.apache.spark.sql.functions._ df.groupBy("department").agg(max("age"), sum("expense")) // Java: import static org.apache.spark.sql.functions.*; df.groupBy("department").agg(max("age"), sum("expense"));
Note that before Spark 1.4, the default behavior is to NOT retain grouping columns. To change
to that behavior, set config variable spark.sql.retainGroupColumns
to false
.
// Scala, 1.3.x: df.groupBy("department").agg($"department", max("age"), sum("expense")) // Java, 1.3.x: df.groupBy("department").agg(col("department"), max("age"), sum("expense"));

Compute the mean value for each numeric columns for each group.
Compute the mean value for each numeric columns for each group. The resulting DataFrame will also contain the grouping columns. When specified columns are given, only compute the mean values for them.

Pivots a column of the current DataFrame and perform the specified aggregation.
Pivots a column of the current DataFrame and perform the specified aggregation. There are two versions of pivot function: one that requires the caller to specify the list of distinct values to pivot on, and one that does not. The latter is more concise but less efficient, because Spark needs to first compute the list of distinct values internally.
// Compute the sum of earnings for each year by course with each course as a separate column df.groupBy("year").pivot("course", Arrays.<Object>asList("dotNET", "Java")).sum("earnings"); // Or without specifying column values (less efficient) df.groupBy("year").pivot("course").sum("earnings");
Name of the column to pivot.
List of values that will be translated to columns in the output DataFrame.

A set of methods for aggregations on a DataFrame, created by Dataset.groupBy.
The main method is the agg function, which has multiple variants. This class also contains convenience some first order statistics such as mean, sum for convenience.
