             Summary: Support for reading parquet files with different but 
compatible schema
                 Key: SPARK-3851
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-3851
             Project: Spark
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: SQL
            Reporter: Michael Armbrust


Right now it is required that all of the parquet files have the same schema.  
It would be nice to support some safe subset of cases where the schemas of 
files is different.  For example:

 - Adding and removing nullable columns.
 - Widening types (a column that is of both Int and Long type)
