+excerpt: The Apache Parquet project has graduated to a top-level project (TLP) at the Apache Software Foundation.
+authors: ["tshiran"]
+---
+It's an exciting day. Apache Parquet, the de-facto standard open source columnar format, has graduated to an Apache top-level project.
+
+The Drill project supports a variety of file formats, but Parquet is the highest performing format, and it's the one we recommend to anyone who wants to maximize the performance of their queries.
+
+We've had the pleasure of working closely with the Parquet community for over a year, and it's exciting to see how much the project has evolved. We've made a number of contributions to the project, and we're gearing up for a major contribution after the Parquet 1.7 release.
+
+I wanted to congratulate Twitter's Julian Le Dem ([@j_](https://twitter.com/j_)), VP of Apache Parquet, and the entire Parquet community on the graduation milestone. Oh, and how can I get a two-letter Twitter handle?
+
+Happy Drilling!
+Tomer Shiran
