             Summary: Add Zstandard compression to avro file format
                 Key: AVRO-2162
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-2162
             Project: Avro
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: java
            Reporter: Scott Carey


I'd like to add Zstandard compression for Avro. 

It is almost as fast as Snappy at compression, with compression ratios more 
like gzip.  At higher levels of compression, it is more compact than gzip -9 
with much lower CPU when compressing and roughly 3x faster decompression.

 

Adding it to Java is fairly easy.  We'll need to say something about it in the 
spec however, as an 'optinal' codec.
