correct parquet-mr , hardcoded format version to 1 then how can we identify if a Parquet file written is from V1 or V2 ? I have asked the same question but according to you there is none .
"As I have said in another thread, Parquet V2 is a concept which contains a lot of features. FWIW, what are defined in the specs [1] are finalized and some of them have been implemented in various implementations. Any file that contains one or more of those features can be considered v2 but the the community has never defined a formal approach to distinguish between v1 and v2. Parquet does have a field in the footer thrift definition to mark the file version [2]. However, not all implementations populate it correctly and some engines will even throw if the version is not 1. To avoid confusion, I strongly suggest not using any v2 feature in your case unless you are 100% sure that all your tools support the v2 feature set you have enabled. [1] https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/blob/master/CHANGES.md [2] https://github.com/apache/parquet-format/blob/master/src/main/thrift/parquet.thrift#L1111 Best, Gang" Here are my 2 cents We should have some flag or tag which differentiates Parquet written in V1 or V2. While reading if the engine doesn't support V2 reading then we are sure we shouldn't feed V2 Parquet. Now few Tools/products are using Parquet V2 for both reading & writing but* Apache Spark is not supporting write through V2 encoding as per Parquet community V2 is not final yet*. Do we have any date when the parquet-mr jar will have Parquet V2 writing functionality so that Spark can adhere to it. *or if i will add this "hadoopConfiguration.set(“parquet.writer.version”, “v2”)" while creating Parquet then those are V2 parquet.* please confirm.
