This format plugin enables Drill to query Delta Lake tables.
This format plugin supports project and filter pushdown optimizations.
For the case of project pushdown, only columns specified in the query will be read, even when they are nested columns.
For the case of filter pushdown, all expressions supported by Delta Lake API will be pushed down, so only data that matches the filter expression will be read. Additionally, filtering logic for parquet files is enabled to allow pruning of parquet files that do not match the filter expression.
The format plugin has the following configuration options:
type
