How to handle Schema Evolution in ORC file format ?

[#1]

Hi all,

as we all know we can control schema evolution in Avro format for both "forward and backward" schema-compatibility. is there any option can we perfrom the same in ORC file format too ?

let me know the possibilities to explore more on this.

Cheers,
