             Summary: Support fixed type in AVRO
                 Key: IMPALA-11876
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/IMPALA-11876
             Project: IMPALA
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Backend
            Reporter: Noemi Pap-Takacs
            Assignee: Noemi Pap-Takacs


Impala supports 'decimal' type in AVRO. 'Decimal' is a logical type, that can 
annotate either 'bytes' or 'fixed' type underneath. Impala can read 'bytes' but 
not 'fixed'.
Iceberg writes 'decimal' type with underlying 'fixed' type. This means that 
Impala is currently unable to support 'decimal' in AVRO tables written by 
Iceberg. In order to fully support all implementations of 'decimal', 'fixed' 
type must be supported.
