Use EvaluateDataQuality with PySpark DataFrame instead of Glue DynamicFrame?

Question

Is there a way to use the class https://docs.aws.amazon.com/glue/latest/dg/aws-glue-api-crawler-pyspark-transforms-EvaluateDataQuality.html with a PySpark DataFrame instead of a Glue DynamicFrame (and also without conversion to it)? I noticed, that working with Spark only is much more stable and significantly faster than working with Glue DynamicFrames. Therefore I would like to omit Glue DynamicFrames completely in my code.

Answer

No, added value features up to now have never been added to the standard DataFrame.   
What you can do is convert to DynamicFrame just to evaluate the data quality and leave the rest of the code the same (or convert back to DataFrame), the overhead of converting from an back on most cases is minimal.
