> described a very simple "local file system load of an example file".  
>  
> I am looking for an example that demonstrates a workflow that exercises different file systems.  For example, 
>  # Driver loads an input file from local file system
>  # Add a simple column using lit() and stores that DataFrame in cluster mode to HDFS
>  # Write that a small limited subset of that DataFrame back to Driver's local file system.  (This is to avoid the anti-pattern of writing large file and out of the scope for this example.  The small limited DataFrame would be some basic statistics, not the actual complete dataset.)
>  
> The examples I found on the internet only uses simple paths without the explicit URI prefixes.
> Without the explicit URI prefixes, the "filepath" inherits how Spark (mode) was called, local stand alone vs YARN client mode.   So a "filepath" will be read/write locally (file system) vs cluster mode HDFS, without these explicit URIs.
> There are situations were a Spark program needs to deal with both local file system and YARN client mode (big data) in the same Spark application, like producing a summary table stored on the local file system of the driver at the end.  
> If there are any existing alternatives Spark documentation that provides examples that traverse through the different URIs in Spark YARN client mode or a better or smarter Spark pattern or API that is more suited for this, I am happy to accept that as well.  Thanks!
