Hi Antoine, Thanks for the feedback - I definitely agree. In rebuilding the website, I kept the content/taglines from the initial version, just to preserve parity. This tagline is something that certainly can and should be updated.
I actually personally like this description of parquet Databricks' glossary: > Apache Parquet is an open source, column-oriented data file format > designed for efficient data storage and retrieval. It provides efficient > data compression and encoding schemes with enhanced performance to handle > complex data in bulk. What are your thoughts on migrating to this?
