Agree with AndyLoPrestos feedback. Also, the libraries for columnar
formats like ORC/Parquet may not make in-line conversion like this very clean.
Take a look at Fetch/Put Parquet. We should do fetch/put ORC which operates on
records. Then as Andy mentions we can easily stream in/out for any
format/schema combination that we have a reader/writer.
