Julien Le Dem created PARQUET-922: ------------------------------------- Summary: Define Index pages when a Parquet file is sorted Key: PARQUET-922 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PARQUET-922 Project: Parquet Issue Type: Improvement Components: parquet-format Reporter: Julien Le Dem Assignee: Marcel Kornacker
When a Parquet file is sorted we can define an index consisting of the boundary values for the pages of the columns sorted on as well as the offsets and length of said pages in the file. The goal is to optimize lookup and range scan type queries, using this to read only the pages containing data matching the filter. We'd require the pages to be aligned accross columns.
