Parquet and AVRO Format for AWS S3
Main advantages for customers:
- Reduces IO operations.
- Fetches specific columns that you need to access.
- It consumes less space.
- Support type-specific encoding.
Currently Syniti puts data in CSV. We've faced following issues because of this
- extra columns in .mir file than ref. Reading data from text delimited files which do not support schema evolution becomes a tedious task.
- Unrecognized characters in columns making parsing erroneous.
- Adding of \r column in the column name itself because of text file creation and handling of such characters by different libraries.
