Convert Avro to NDJSON

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.

NDJSON (Newline Delimited JSON) is a handy format for storing or streaming structured data that you can process one record at a time. Each line in an NDJSON file is a valid JSON object, with a newline character separating them.

This format works great for handling large datasets. You can easily parse and process data line by line without loading the entire file into memory.

Key Features

• Each line is a complete JSON object
• Easy to read and write sequentially
• Great for streaming and logging
• Allows partial processing of large datasets

NDJSON is popular in data pipelines, log processing, and situations where you need to add new data to existing files without changing the whole structure.
