Research direction

Start by reading superseding issue #108, which the issue identifies as the replacement for this work. No files, tests, or entry points are named here; the original goal was efficient QuestDB-to-Arrow loading and zero-copy sharing, while done is covered by the newer native SQL driver work.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

open format open source performance

Note: This item has been superseded by #108 (High-performance egress with native SQL drivers), which delivers zero-copy, high-performance egress with tighter QuestDB integration.


Building the Apache Arrow ADBC driver for QuestDB. This follows the introduction of new UTF-8 type varchar, minimizing type conversions.

One direct improvement will be to load data from QuestDB into Arrow format very efficiently. Data Scientists and Quants will then be able to leverage Pandas, Polars, and other tools that are natively compatible with Arrow.

Zero-copy data sharing.
