This is a JDBC writer related option. When
<code>SaveMode.Overwrite</code> is enabled, this option causes Spark to
truncate an existing table instead of dropping and recreating it. This can be

removed. However, it will not work in some cases, such as when the new data has
a different schema. It defaults to <code>false</code>. This option applies only
to writing.

+ This is a JDBC writer related option. If enabled and supported by
the JDBC database (PostgreSQL and Oracle at the moment), this options allows
execution of a <code>TRUNCATE TABLE t CASCADE</code>. This will affect other
tables, and thus should be used with case. This option applies only to writing.

@dongjoon-hyun apologies if I misrepresented your comments/opinions from
