(warning) WARNING:

If you will be setting up the DataSync Agent to also connect to the same database, you will want to configure the Agent to use the same column cases

To enhance your DataSync integration for Parquet, you can configure the Parquet Bulk Load Meshlet to the directives listed below:

Warning
iconfalse

.

By default, the Parquet Bulk Load Meshlet uses lowercase for the column names. Also, the QUOTED_IDENTIFIERS_IGNORE_CASE setting in Parquet should be kept with its default value of

 

false.
  • The meshlet uses the TIMEZONE session parameter to connect to Parquet in order to save all timestamps in UTC . By default, glide_date_time field is mapped to the TIMESTAMP_LTZ(9) column type. This allows you to query using a local timezone as needed. 

To check out the general meshlet configurations, see General Meshlet Configurations for DataSync.


DirectiveDefault ValueDescription

maxFileSize


Required Configuration. This configuration specifies the max size for temporary files created as the meshlet pushes records to parquet. of records for each parquet file. 10000 will be used if input is over 10000 to prevent possible performance and memory issues. A suggested value is 5000.

(info) NOTE: Negative values are not supported and will result in 1 record for each parquet file.
