Parquet file format supports very efficient compression and encoding of column oriented data. This format enables compression schemes to be specified on a per-column level allowing efficient compression and encoding of data. To read and write Parquet files in MATLAB^®, use theparquetreadandparquetwritefunctions. To read a collection of Parquet files, useParquetDatastore. To conditionally filter and read data faster (Predicate Pushdown) from Parquet files, usematlab.io.RowFilter.
