             Summary: Proposal to rename parquet-mr to parquet-java
                 Key: PARQUET-2475
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-2475
             Project: Parquet
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Andrew Lamb


When I first encountered "parquet-mr" I didn't not understand what the mr meant 
(I think it is map reduce?) but I believe what the 
[https://github.com/apache/parquet-mr] repo actually contains is a java 
implementation maintained by the Apache Parquet PMC

 

[~apitrou]  mentions the confusion about parquet-mr naming as well here

[https://github.com/apache/parquet-site/pull/53#discussion_r1598284018]

 

> Also, can we explain what "mr" stands for? It's a mystery for most people.

 

 

Julien Le Dem suggested  renaming the parquet-mr repository to parquet-java to 
reduce confusion about its content: 
[https://github.com/apache/parquet-site/pull/59#pullrequestreview-2056038304]

 

> This looks great. Thank you for taking the initiative. Hadoop is not required 
> indeed. Perhaps at some point we should rename parquet-mr to parquet-java?

 

Thus I suggest we rename the repo to parquet-java. This requires an infra 
ticket which I can do if people agree with this

 

Note that all existing github links would continue to function by redirecting 
to the new name we recently renamed 
[https://github.com/apache/arrow-datafusion] to 
[https://github.com/apache/datafusion] for example and all the old links still 
work)
