Description
Currently Drill fails on schema changes in JSON. Some of these are due to fundamental limitations of the Drill record representation. Others are due to Drills lack of full support for mutating schema. This can be solved temporarily by reading in all data as strings and allowing users to use some combination of case statements and UDFs to appropriately handle their own schema mutations.
