Steven Anton created PARQUET-678:
------------------------------------
Summary: Allow for custom compression codecs
Key: PARQUET-678
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-678
Project: Parquet
Issue Type: Wish
Reporter: Steven Anton
Priority: Minor
I understand that the list of accepted compression codecs is explicity limited
to uncompressed, snappy, gzip, and lzo. (See
parquet.hadoop.metadata.CompressionCodecName.java) Is there a reason for this?
Or is there an easy workaround? On the surface it seems like an unnecessary
restriction.
I ask because I have written a custom codec to implement encryption and I'm
unable to use it with Parquet, which is a real shame because it is the main
storage format I was hoping to use.
Other thoughts on how to implement encryption in Parquet with this limitation?
