Description
It would be useful for a Java application to be able to read a record batch as a set of memory mapped byte buffers given a file name and a memory address for the metadata.

Research direction
The issue does not name any files, tests, or Java entry points. Begin by locating the Java code that reads and writes record batches, then investigate how memory-mapped byte buffers, a file name, and a metadata memory address could be supported. Done should include a defined read/write API and coverage for shared-memory record batches.
