Prior to Spark 3.0, only the `BROADCAST` Join Hint was supported. `MERGE`, `SHUFFLE_HASH` and `SHUFFLE_REPLICATE_NL` Joint Hints support was added in 3.0. When different join strategy hints are specified on both sides of a join, Spark prioritizes hints in the following order: `BROADCAST` over `MERGE` over `SHUFFLE_HASH` over `SHUFFLE_REPLICATE_NL`. When both sides are specified with the `BROADCAST` hint or the `SH [...] + +### Join Hints Types + +<dl> + <dt><code><em>BROADCAST</em></code></dt> + <dd> + Suggests that Spark use broadcast join.
