AWS Glue DataBrew now supports the ORC file format as an input
AWS Glue DataBrew customers are now able to clean and transform data stored in the Optimized Row Columnar (ORC) file format, a widely used data format for storing Hive data. When creating a dataset in AWS Glue DataBrew, you can now use ORC files in addition to already supported Apache Parquet, Microsoft Excel, CSV, and JSON file formats.

Updated April 11, 2022 - This post inaccurately listed Apache Avro as a supported input format. As of this date, AWS Glue DataBrew does not currently support Apache Avro as an input format.
