--------------------------------------
Summary: Add support for auto-partitioning in parquet writer
Key: DRILL-3333
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-3333
Project: Apache Drill
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: Steven Phillips
When a table is created with a partition by clause, the parquet writer will
create separate files for the different partition values. The data will first
be sorted by the partition keys, and the parquet writer will create new file
when it encounters a new value for the partition columns.
When data is queried against the data that was created this way, partition
pruning will work if the filter contains a partition column. And unlike
directory based partitioning, no view is required, nor is it necessary to
reference the dir* column names.
