What will be the output schema when reading an Avro file with embedded schema using PySpark's avro package?
ASchema is inferred from the embedded Avro schema
BSchema must be manually specified
CSchema is always empty
DSchema is inferred from the file name
Step-by-Step Solution
Solution:
  1. Step 1: Understand Avro schema handling

    Avro files contain embedded schema, so PySpark can infer the schema automatically when reading.
  2. Step 2: Eliminate incorrect options

    Manual schema specification is optional, schema is not empty, and file name does not determine schema.
  3. Final Answer:

    Schema is inferred from the embedded Avro schema -> Option A
  4. Quick Check:

    Avro embedded schema = automatic inference [OK]
Quick Trick: Avro files carry schema for automatic reading [OK]
Common Mistakes:
  • Forcing manual schema
  • Assuming empty schema
  • Using file name for schema inference
