## Description:
A high-performance columnar file format for Hadoop workloads.
## Issues:
- We really need a release, which is blocked by wanting to get the Java
reader and writer
moved out of Hive.
## Activity:
- Progress continues on moving the Java reader and writer out of Hive.
We've created the
ORC module in Hive and moved the API, utilities and writer into it. We
are currently
cleaning up some of the ORC APIs before Hive 2.0.0 gets released. The
final bits to move
over to the ORC module will be the reader. Once the reader is moved
over, the entire
module can be moved to the ORC project.
## Health report:
- The activity level is relatively low. The C++ reader works and is
stable. There continues to
be user interest in reading and writing ORC files outside of Hive.
