Lefty Leverenz commented on ORC-46: ----------------------------------- Doc note: Eventually the documentation should be updated. Now it just says: "If the ORC file writer selects a generic compression codec (zlib or snappy), every part of the ORC file except for the Postscript is compressed with that codec." And the Hive ORC documentation says: "The codec can be Snappy, Zlib, or none." LZO should also be added. * [ORC docs -- Compression | http://orc.apache.org/docs/compression.html] * [Hive ORC doc -- Compression | https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/LanguageManual+ORC#LanguageManualORC-Compression] > Reserve CompressionKind values for LZ4 and ZSTD > ----------------------------------------------- > > Key: ORC-46 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ORC-46 > Project: Orc > Issue Type: Improvement > Reporter: David Phillips > Assignee: David Phillips > Fix For: 1.1.0 > > > We are going to start using ORC with LZ4 and ZSTD compression types in Presto > (which has its own reader and soon its own writer). Registering these as > official CompressionKind values now will avoid future compatibility issues. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
