How many records does Spark use to infer the schema? entire file or just the first "X" number of records?

And to the earlier comment of Delta being an extension of Parquet. You can start with a dataset in Parquet format in S3 and do an in-place conversion to Delta without having to duplicate the data. See - https://docs.databricks.com/spark/latest/spark-...
