title: Does BigQuery support avro compression or not?
body: <p>On one documentation here: <a href="https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/loading-data-cloud-storage-avro#avro_compression" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/loading-data-cloud-storage-avro#avro_compression</a> it clearly says avro compression is not supported. </p>
  
  <p>On another documentation here: <a href="https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/loading-data#loading_compressed_and_uncompressed_data" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/loading-data#loading_compressed_and_uncompressed_data</a> it says Avro format is preferred for compressed data.</p>
  
  <p>Can someone tell me what this means? I am really confused.</p>
