Agree with caolu, I think users may be confused by lots of format.

In the future, it will be better for carbon to unify the data format. The unified format should compatible with previous format. If it is unavoidable to give different format to support different use case to gain better performance, I think we can add configuration parameter in this unified format.

The key point is CarbonData should have only one format.
It will be better for user to understand and also better for developers to extend.
