+JSON
+****
+
+JSON(JavaScript Object Notation) is an open standard format for data
(de)serialization. Since it is simple and human-readable, it is popularly used
in many fields.
+Tajo supports JSON as its data format. In this section, you will get an
overview of how to create JSON tables and query on them.
+
+============================
+How to Create a JSON Table ?
+============================
+
+You can create JSON tables using ``CREATE TABLE`` statement. (For more
information, please refer to :doc:`/sql_language/ddl`.)

> Project: Tajo
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Components: Planner/Optimizer
> Reporter: Jihoon Son
> Assignee: Jihoon Son
>
> *Problem*
> Tajo already has a support for self-describing data formats like JSON,
> Parquet, or ORC. While they are capable of providing schema information by
> themselves, users must define schema to query on them with the current
> implementation. To solve this inconvenience, we have to improve our query
> planner to support self-describing data formats well.
> *Solution*
> First, we need to allow omitting schema definition for the create table
> statement. When a query is submitted for a self-describing table, the columns
> which don't exist in that table will be filled with Nulls.
