Convert dataframe to hive table in spark scala
saveAsTable in spark is not compatible with hive. I am on CDH 5.5.2. Workaround from cloudera website:
df.registerTempTable(tempName) hsc.sql(s""" CREATE TABLE $tableName ( // field definitions ) STORED AS $format """) hsc.sql(s"INSERT INTO TABLE $tableName SELECT * FROM $tempName")http://www.cloudera.com/documentation/enterprise/release-notes/topics/cdh_rn_spark_ki.html
