    Our client is requesting support for Avro, in addition to Parquet.

    agree must have. Tibco, your software is falling too far behind in this specific case.

    I am having to use Power BI instead of Spotfire Analyst to connect to Parquet files located in AWS S3

    Hi Roni, that's a very interesting request and something we should consider. The S3/COS APIs seem to be similar. If the subset of API functionality needed for a future integration overlaps COS could be included. It would then come down to providing an additioanl token based authentication workflow. Feel free to reach out to me on tblomber@tibco.com if you would like to have a chat. Thanks, Thomas

    There is a requirement to connect IBM S3 from Spotfire. Does it also include IBM S3?
