Florent BIVILLE commented on SPARK-44262:
-----------------------------------------

Thanks for sharing the document, much appreciated!
I know and co-maintain the Spark connector for Neo4j, which is indeed the most 
straightforward way to interact with Spark.
My investigation is specifically about JDBC, which is why I have not used the 
Spark connector for Neo4j here.

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-44262
>             Project: Spark
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: SQL
>    Affects Versions: 2.2.0
>            Reporter: Florent BIVILLE
>            Priority: Major
>
> I am currently investigating an integration with the [Neo4j JBDC 
> driver|https://github.com/neo4j-contrib/neo4j-jdbc] and a Spark-based cloud 
> vendor SDK.
>  
> This SDK relies on Spark's {{JdbcUtils}} to run queries and insert data.
> While {{JdbcUtils}} partly delegates to 
> \{{org.apache.spark.sql.jdbc.JdbcDialect}} for some queries, some others are 
> hardcoded to SQL, see:
>  * {{org.apache.spark.sql.execution.datasources.jdbc.JdbcUtils#dropTable}}
>  * 
> {{org.apache.spark.sql.execution.datasources.jdbc.JdbcUtils#getInsertStatement}}
>  
> This works fine for relational databases but breaks for NOSQL stores that do 
> not support SQL translation (like Neo4j).
> Is there a plan to augment the {{JdbcDialect}} surface so that it is also 
> responsible for these currently-hardcoded queries?
