@@ -30,6 +30,8 @@ Spark SQL can cache tables using an in-memory columnar format by calling `spark.
 Then Spark SQL will scan only required columns and will automatically tune compression to minimize
 memory usage and GC pressure. You can call `spark.catalog.uncacheTable("tableName")` or `dataFrame.unpersist()` to remove the table from memory.
 
+To list relations cached with an explicit name, use `SHOW CACHED TABLES` in SQL or `spark.catalog.listCachedTables()`. Entries cached only via `Dataset.cache()` without a name are not included.
+
 Configuration of in-memory caching can be done via `spark.conf.set` or by running
 `SET key=value` commands using SQL.

+
+### Description
+
+The `SHOW CACHED TABLES` statement returns every in-memory cache entry that was registered with an explicit table or view name, for example via [`CACHE TABLE`](sql-ref-syntax-aux-cache-cache-table.html) or `spark.catalog.cacheTable`. The result has two columns: `tableName` (the name used when caching) and `storageLevel` (a string description of how the data is cached).
+
+Relations cached only through `Dataset.cache()` / `DataFrame.cache()` without assigning a catalog name are **not** listed.
+
+### Syntax
+
+```sql
+SHOW CACHED TABLES
+```
+
+### Examples
+
+```sql
+CACHE TABLE my_table AS SELECT * FROM src;
+
+SHOW CACHED TABLES;
++----------+--------------------------------------+
+| tableName|                          storageLevel|
++----------+--------------------------------------+
+|  my_table|Disk Memory Deserialized 1x Replicated|
++----------+--------------------------------------+
