[jira] [Updated] (SPARK-10364) Support Parquet logical type TIMESTAMP_MILLIS

     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-10364?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Cheng Lian updated SPARK-10364:
-------------------------------
    Description: 
The {{TimestampType}} in Spark SQL is of microsecond precision. Ideally, we should convert Spark SQL timestamp values into Parquet {{TIMESTAMP_MICROS}}. But unfortunately parquet-mr hasn't supported it yet.

For the read path, we should be able to read {{TIMESTAMP_MILLIS}} Parquet values and pad a 0 microsecond part to read values.

For the write path, currently we are writing timestamps as {{INT96}}, similar to Impala and Hive. One alternative is that, we can have a separate SQL option to let users be able to write Spark SQL timestamp values as {{TIMESTAMP_MILLIS}}. Of course, in this way the microsecond part will be truncated.
