etlplus.file.avro

etlplus.file.avro module.

Helpers for reading/writing Apache Avro (AVRO) files.

Notes

• An AVRO file is a binary file format designed for efficient

  on-disk storage of data, with a schema definition.

• Common cases:

  • Data serialization for distributed systems.

  • Interoperability between different programming languages.

  • Storage of large datasets with schema evolution support.

• Rule of thumb:

  • If the file follows the Apache Avro specification, use this module for

    reading and writing.
