   @betodealmeida @khtruong @DiggidyDave we're running into issues with this 
feature as it doesn't seem to handle all the Presto [structural 
types](https://prestodb.github.io/docs/current/language/types) i.e., it's 
missing the the `MAP`. This isn't problematic in itself but it's an issue when 
the `ROW` or `ARRAY` contains a `MAP` object, i.e, `array(map(varchar, 
varchar))`. 
   
   The failure is:
   
   ```
   {"error": "list index out of range", "stacktrace": "Traceback (most recent 
call last):\n  File \"/srv/superset/superset/views/core.py\", line 2284, in 
table\n    columns = mydb.get_columns(table_name, schema)\n  File 
\"/srv/superset/superset/models/core.py\", line 1154, in get_columns\n    
return self.db_engine_spec.get_columns(self.inspector, table_name, schema)\n  
File \"/srv/superset/superset/db_engine_specs/presto.py\", line 235, in 
get_columns\n    cls._parse_structural_column(column.Column, column.Type, 
result)\n  File \"/srv/superset/superset/db_engine_specs/presto.py\", line 157, 
in _parse_structural_column\n    if field_info[1] == \"array\" or field_info[1] 
== \"row\":\nIndexError: list index out of range\n"}
   ```
   
   I looked into trying to fix (checking the length of `field_info`) but I 
don't fully follow the logic and I'm unsure whether a `MAP` needs to be handled 
like an `ARRAY` or `ROW` and thus where I should fix this. Note that a `MAP` 
can consist of other structural types. 
   
   Note I'm uncertain how complex the fix is but could Lyft either i) look into 
fixing this in the next 48 hours, ii) put the feature behind a feature flag, or 
iii) revert the change whilst a long term solution is found.
