Reference documentation and code samples for the Google BigQuery Storage v1 API enum ReadSession.Types.TableReadOptions.Types.ResponseCompressionCodec.
Specifies which compression codec to attempt on the entire serialized
response payload (either Arrow record batch or Avro rows). This is
not to be confused with the Apache Arrow native compression codecs
specified in ArrowSerializationOptions. For performance reasons, when
creating a read session requesting Arrow responses, setting both native
Arrow compression and application-level response compression will not be
allowed - choose, at most, one kind of compression.
