Parquet vs CSV: Key factors behind file format performance differences

Data engineers often recommend Parquet over CSV but rarely explain why. Parquet stores data column by column, allowing queries to read only relevant data, while CSV must process entire rows. Columnar storage also enables more efficient compression through specialized encoding methods for different data types.
