> Since parquet types are known to us, we need to make sure to expose these types without making user explicitly cast each column.
> "create view v1 as select c_integer from j1; " produces view with column of ANY data type.
> {code}
> 0: jdbc:drill:schema=dfs> describe v1;
> +-------------+------------+-------------+
> | COLUMN_NAME | DATA_TYPE  | IS_NULLABLE |
> +-------------+------------+-------------+
> | c_integer   | ANY        | YES         |
> +-------------+------------+-------------+
> 1 row selected (0.091 seconds)
> {code}
> I think we need to extend "CREATE VIEW" document for GA explaining this fact.
