Thanks Kunal for your insight. I am actually converting some .csv files and storing them in parquet format in s3, not in HDFS. The size of the individual .csv source files can be quite huge (around 10GB). So, is there a way to overcome this and create one parquet file or do I have to go ahead with multiple parquet files?
