Why a "parquet-like" format and not just parquet?

#13Why a "parquet-like" format and not just parquet?
We store these files on S3 and directly read them in the query path using lambda functions. Parquet would work as a storage format for logs and traces, but not for metrics. At oodle we built the metrics engine first, so we designed a hybrid row/column format with a more S3 friendly indexing strategy - fewer lookups required to locate relevant chunks within the file. The hybrid row/column format was necessary to store multiple "samples" in the same row. This also allowed us to get compression ratios in the order of 600x.
When we extended the engine to logs and traces, we took the approach of tweaking the same file format so that we could re-use a majority of the engine we had already built.

disclaimer: I work at Oodle, posting my own perspective here.
Vijay and Kiran have both replied here in good faith. I like the fact that my bosses are nice, kind, and decent people.
I disagree with them about being nice to trolls.
All the past submissions from OP are for content hosted on a specific domain, which now redirects to another one: Surprise surprise! They sell "Telemetry Pipeline for AI-Era Data Volumes". So, a somewhat-competitor!?
OP, thanks for validation. When competitors write drive-by, unsubstantiated, undisclosed comments, that's good news!

#16love oodle’s speed and the best in class mcp. excited to try out agent tracing and evaluate the accumulated failure patterns
Thanks varun! let us know what you think about surfacing agent failures automatically, happy to help with onboarding if that helps.
