Visualizations in Databricks notebooks

  • Άρθρο

Azure Databricks has built-in support for charts and visualizations in both Databricks SQL and in notebooks. This page describes how to work with visualizations in a Databricks notebook. For information about using visualizations in Databricks SQL, see Visualization in Databricks SQL.

To view the types of visualizations, see visualization types.

Important

For information about a preview version of Azure Databricks charts, see preview chart visualizations.

Create a new visualization

To recreate the example in this section, use the following code:

sparkDF = spark.read.csv("/databricks-datasets/bikeSharing/data-001/day.csv", header="true", inferSchema="true")
display(sparkDF)

To create a visualization, click + above a result and select Visualization. The visualization editor appears.

Create a new data profile

Note

Available in Databricks Runtime 9.1 LTS and above.

Data profiles display summary statistics of an Apache Spark DataFrame, a pandas DataFrame, or a SQL table in tabular and graphic format. To create a data profile from a results cell, click + and select Data Profile.

Azure Databricks calculates and displays the summary statistics.

Data Profile

  • Numeric and categorical features are shown in separate tables.
  • At the top of the tab, you can sort or search for features.
  • At the top of the chart column, you can choose to display a histogram (Standard) or quantiles.
  • Check expand to enlarge the charts.
  • Check log to display the charts on a log scale.
  • You can hover your cursor over the charts for more detailed information, such as the boundaries of a histogram column and the number of rows in it, or the quantile value.

You can also generate data profiles programmatically; see summarize command (dbutils.data.summarize).
