---------------------------------------
Summary: Add a TEXT-like data type to enable the string longer
than 64K
Key: ASTERIXDB-1102
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ASTERIXDB-1102
Project: Apache AsterixDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Data Model
Reporter: Jianfeng Jia
The current "String" type can't handle the string longer than 64K. The first
reason is that we are using java DataOutputStream to serialize it. It stores
the length using two bytes. However, it should serve the basic requirement for
"string" type.
We need a special TEXT-like datatype to deal with long strings. And probably
add some search-related functionalities.
