where is it used in production?


Here's a list (and as mentioned in my comment, Apache Spark, Pandas, turbodbc)

https://arrow.apache.org/powered_by/


Spark uses it under the hood to interop between PySpark and JVM


Dremio is a really nice product built using arrow.

Apache Arrow? First thing the top of my head(given that I had to work with this these past few days), the python snowflake connector depends on it if you intend to fetch the results from snowflake as a pandas or dask dataframe. In other words - lots of places.


(contributor here) At my company our proprietary database layout is based on Arrow. Our workload is analytical and we are using it for read mostly workloads.
