• parquet-go

  2 1,000 5.8 Go

  pure golang library for reading/writing parquet file

  > It's so complex to work with, that unless you're specifically in data science, it's both unheard of and unusable.

  FWIW, in my experience at a "data analytics platform" company, it's reasonably popular for data-heavy workflows since Because Parquet is well-defined, and file sizes are a fraction of their CSV equivalents.

  > Is it a limitation of the format itself?

  I don't think so. In other languages, you can generally read/write Parquet files without a ton of dependencies (e.g. https://github.com/xitongsys/parquet-go).

  No one uses that format for streamed json, see ndson and jsonl

  The size complaint is overblown, as repeated fields are compressed away.

  As other folks rightfully commented, csv is a mine field. One should assume every CSV file is broken in some way. They also don't enumerate any of the downsides of CSV.

  What people should consider is using formats like Avro or Parquet that carry their schema with them so the data can be loaded and analyzed without have to manually deal with column meaning.

  maximum performance data processing (by nathants)

  i had a lot of fun exploring the performance ceiling of csv and csv like formats. turns out binary encoding of size prefixed byte arrays is fast[1].

  csv is just a sequence of 2d byte arrays. probably avoid if dealing with heterogeneous external data. possibly use if dealing with homogeneous internal data.
