Hyukjin Kwon commented on SPARK-32760:
--------------------------------------
The problem is that you should implement the serde for Python and R sides as
well to make it properly supported. This is a huge work. Let's don't do this
unless there's a very strong reason and very wide needs from the community.
> Support for INET data type
> --------------------------
>
> Key: SPARK-32760
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SPARK-32760
> Project: Spark
> Issue Type: Sub-task
> Components: Spark Core
> Affects Versions: 2.4.0, 3.0.0, 3.1.0
> Reporter: Ruslan Dautkhanov
> Priority: Major
>
> PostgreSQL has support for `INET` data type
> [https://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/datatype-net-types.html]
> We have a few customers that are interested in similar, native support for IP
> addresses, just like in PostgreSQL.
> The issue with storing IP addresses as strings, is that most of the matches
> (like if an IP address belong to a subnet) in most cases can't take leverage
> of parquet bloom filters.
