Select All Columns Except a Few from a Table

Comments

There is no (direct) way of select all columns except a few from a table using SQL. However, this is easily doable with DataFrame APIs (pandas, Spark/PySpark, etc.).

Get Size of Tables on HDFS

The HDFS Way

You can use the hdfs dfs -du /path/to/table command or hdfs dfs -count -q -v -h /path/to/table to get the size of an HDFS path (or table). However, this only works if the cluster supports HDFS. If a Spark cluster exposes only JDBC/ODBC APIs, this method does not work.
