Kristine Hahn commented on DRILL-2908:
--------------------------------------

Corrected [SQL Data Types to Parquet table|http://kristinehahn.github.io/drill/docs/parquet-format/#sql-data-types-to-parquet] per Parth's comment (VARBINARY(12)) and included the example in ["About INT96 Support"|http://kristinehahn.github.io/drill/docs/parquet-format/#about-int96-support].

> While Drill does not currently have an int96 type, it is supported by the parquet format and we should be able to read files that contain columns of this type. For now we will read the data into a varbinary and users will have to use existing convert_from functions or write their own to interpret the type of data actually stored. One example is the Impala timestamp format which is encoded in an int96 column.
