I will describe the issue in more detail below. The problem is quite serious, as right now almost all […]

Streaming Columnar Data with Apache Arrow

The article's translation is specially prepared for students of the 'Data Engineer' course. In the past few weeks, we, along with Nong Li, have added a binary streaming format to Apache Arrow, complementing the existing random access / IPC file format. We have implementations in Java and C++, as well as Python bindings. In this article, I will explain how the format works and show how to achieve […]
