Convert Avro to Excel

Apache Avro is a row-oriented remote procedure call and data serialization framework developed as part of Apache's Hadoop project. It uses JSON to define data types and protocols, and serializes data in a compact binary format.

Avro can handle complex nested data structures and lets you query and work with specific columns without reading the entire dataset.

Microsoft Excel is a powerful spreadsheet application developed by Microsoft for Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. It offers calculation capabilities, graphing tools, pivot tables, and a macro programming language called Visual Basic for Applications (VBA).

Excel files can have multiple sheets, and each sheet can contain multiple rows and columns of data. Excel supports various file formats, including XLS, XLSX, and CSV.

Key features of Microsoft Excel include:

• Data analysis tools like sorting, filtering, and conditional formatting
• Ability to create complex formulas and use built-in functions
• Charting and graphing capabilities for data visualization
• Pivot tables for summarizing and analyzing large datasets
• Macro recording and VBA programming for automation
• Collaboration features, including real-time co-authoring in newer versions

Excel is widely used in business, finance, and data analysis for tasks ranging from simple calculations to complex modeling and reporting.
