Convert TSV to Parquet

Tab-separated values (TSV) is another simple and widely used format for storing tabular data. Like CSV, it's easy to read and create.

Row delimiter

The row delimiter in TSV data is usually a new line character (LF) or a carriage return plus a new line character (CRLF).

We'll automatically detect and parse the rows correctly, so you don't need to worry about it.

Value separator

In TSV files, the value separator is typically a tab character, but it can vary depending on the software used to create the file.

Character encoding

The character encoding of your TSV file might differ based on the software you used to create it.

If you're not sure about the character encoding, don't worry. We'll try to guess it automatically if it's not specified.

Apache Parquet is a columnar storage format that works great with big data processing frameworks. It compresses and encodes data efficiently, which saves a lot of storage space and makes reading data faster.

Parquet can handle complex nested data structures. It lets you query and work with specific columns without having to read the entire dataset.

Compression

Parquet supports several compression algorithms like Snappy, Gzip, and LZO. These compression techniques help reduce storage space and speed up data processing tasks.
