Nandor Kollar commented on PARQUET-1545:
----------------------------------------
Great, closing this Jira as done then. By the way, like I told, if you're using
parquet-mr, then this is only supported since 1.11.0.
> Logical Type for timezone-naive timestamps

> Project: Parquet
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Tim Swast`
> Priority: Major

> {{In many systems there is a difference between a timezone-naive timestamp
> column (called DATETIME in BigQuery, 'logicalType': 'datetime' in Avro) and a
> timezone-aware timestamp (called TIMESTAMP in BigQuery and always stored in
> UTC). It seems from [this
> discussion|https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/pull/51#discussion_r119911623]
> and the [list of logical
> types|https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/blob/master/LogicalTypes.md]
> that parquet only has the timezone-aware version, as all timestamps are
> stored according to UTC.}}
