Jason Altekruse created DRILL-2908:
--------------------------------------

             Summary: Support reading the Parquet int 96 type
                 Key: DRILL-2908
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DRILL-2908
             Project: Apache Drill
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Storage - Parquet
            Reporter: Jason Altekruse
            Assignee: Jason Altekruse
             Fix For: 1.0.0


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.
