--------------------------------------
Summary: Support reading the Parquet int 96 type
Key: DRILL-2908
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2908
Project: Apache Drill
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Storage - Parquet
Reporter: Jason Altekruse
Assignee: Jason Altekruse
Fix For: 1.0.0
While Drill does not currently have an int96 type, it is supported by the
parquet format and we should be able to read files that contain columns of this
type. For now we will read the data into a varbinary and users will have to use
existing convert_from functions or write their own to interpret the type of
data actually stored. One example is the Impala timestamp format which is
encoded in an int96 column.
