             Summary: Correct Iceberg type mappings
                 Key: IMPALA-10358
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-10358
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: Bug
            Reporter: Zoltán Borók-Nagy


The Iceberg format spec defines what types to use for different type formats, 
e.g.:

[https://iceberg.apache.org/spec/#parquet]

Impala should follow the specification:
 * Strings in Iceberg tables should be annotated with UTF8 (when file format is 
Parquet)
 * Revise fixed(L) <-> CHAR(L) mapping
 ** CHAR(L) in Impala is annotated with UTF8
 ** fixed(L) is for fixed-length binary data
 ** We should probably remove this mapping
