Hi all,

Recent changes in metadata compression started adding “.gz” after metadata file 
name, not in the end as before.
Before: v1.metadata.json.gz
Now: v1.gz.metadata.json

Looks like this was done intentionally but for me it looks rather confusing. 
Since gz is indication of compressed file and usually placed in the end. Plus 
is causes problems when reading such file using external tools.
For example, Apache Drill cannot read "v1.gz.metadata.json” as it assumes, it 
is a json but it can successfully read "v1.metadata.json.gz” since it 
understands that it is a compressed json file.


Any thoughts?

Kind regards,
Arina
