             Summary: Support LZO using aircompressor
                 Key: HADOOP-17124
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HADOOP-17124
             Project: Hadoop Common
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: common
    Affects Versions: 3.3.0
            Reporter: DB Tsai


LZO codec was removed in HADOOP-4874 because the original LZO binding is GPL 
which is problematic. However, many legacy data is still compressed by LZO 
codec, and companies often use vendor's GPL LZO codec in the classpath which 
might cause GPL contamination.

Presro and ORC-77 use [aircompressor| 
[https://github.com/airlift/aircompressor]] (Apache V2 licensed) to compress 
and decompress LZO data. Hadoop can add back LZO support using aircompressor 
without GPL violation.
