- An Avro object container file holds records together with the JSON schema that describes them, in a compact binary encoding. It is common in Kafka and Hadoop pipelines.
- A JSON Lines file holds one JSON value per line, usually one record per line, so it can be written and read as a stream. Logs, data exports and machine learning datasets use it.
