ODS

OpenDocument Spreadsheet (ODS) is an open standard file format for spreadsheets. It's part of the OpenDocument Format (ODF) family, developed by the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS). Many office suites support it, including LibreOffice and Apache OpenOffice.

ODS files can have multiple sheets, and each sheet can contain multiple rows and columns of data. The format supports a wide range of features including formulas, styles, charts, and macros.

One of the main advantages of ODS is its open nature, which ensures long-term accessibility and interoperability. It uses a compressed XML format, making it both efficient in storage and easy to process programmatically.

Parquet

Parquet is a columnar storage file format designed for efficiency with big data processing frameworks like Apache Hadoop and Spark.

Technical Details

Advantages

  • Highly efficient columnar storage and compression
  • Excellent query performance for analytical workloads
  • Support for nested data structures
  • Schema evolution capabilities

Limitations

  • Not human-readable like CSV or JSON
  • Less suitable for row-oriented operations
  • Requires specialized tools for viewing and editing
  • More complex than simpler formats
