Hello all, I am a new user of Apache Drill and I am in the process of better understanding its internals. To that end, I have two questions, for which I was unable to find more information online.
First, when I execute an EXPLAIN command for a query that gets its data from JSON files, I see a physical operator named JSON_SUB_SCAN. What does that operator exactly do? Is it only used for parsing (extracting) fields from JSON data? Or does it perform additional processing? As far as I know, Drill uses Jackson Streaming API for extracting JSON data. Is that still true? Finally, what is the equivalent operator for CSV files? Second, I need to access query profiles from a server that is behind a firewall. Therefore, accessing the URL of that machine on port 8047 is a headache (since I have to submit a ticket to IT Support). My question is whether I can access the Query Profiles in any other way? Like from the sqlline or through log/profile files created while executing queries. Thank you and Kind Regards, -- Nikos R. Katsipoulakis, Department of Computer Science University of Pittsburgh
