Neither.

All women are humans. Not all humans are women. You wouldn’t say that a woman 
is a subset of a human.

All DataFrames are DataSets. Not all Datasets are DataFrames. The “subset” 
relationship doesn’t apply here.  A DataFrame is a specialized type of DataSet

Subject: Dataframe vs dataset

Hi,

I use Spark everyday and I have a good grip on the basics of Spark, so this 
question isnt for myself.  But this came up and I wanted to see what other 
Spark users would say, and I dont want to influence your answer.  And SO is 
weird about polls. The question is

 "Which one do you feel is accurate... Dataset is a subset of DataFrame, or 
DataFrame a subset of Dataset?"
