[jira] [Created] (DRILL-3458) Avro file format's support for map and nullable union data types.

Bhallamudi Venkata Siva Kamesh created DRILL-3458:
-----------------------------------------------------

             Summary: Avro file format's support for map and nullable union data types.
                 Key: DRILL-3458
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-3458
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Storage - Other
    Affects Versions: 1.0.0
            Reporter: Bhallamudi Venkata Siva Kamesh
            Assignee: Jacques Nadeau


Avro file format as of now does not support union and map datatypes.
For union datatypes, like [Pig|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/PIG/AvroStorage] and [Hive|https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/Hive/AvroSerDe], I think, we can support nullable union like ["null", "some-type"].

It looks like this issue can be resolved and the patch committed. Would someone with commit access be kind enough to resolve the issue and commit it?

It might also be helpful if we could define a new component “Storage - Avro” in Jira for future issues.

Thanks!
