CDH 5.3 release note says, Apache Avro has new date, time, timestamp, and duration binary types.
What I need is a timestamp in the impala table created from a parquet file, how to achieve this with the new Avro feature introduced by AVRO-739 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/AVRO-739> I write a schema with {"name": "ServerTime", "type": "long", "logicalType": "timestamp-millis", "default": 0} but when I use mvn generate-sources, ServerTime is still a java long, and if I write the record to parquet using AvroParquetWriter, it’s int64, and then I load the file to impala, ServerTime is now bigint, not timestamp . Note that I've updated avro, parquet-avro, avro-maven-plugin to the latest cdh5.3.0 version
