Arrow: * Standardizes binary interop and "serialization" of large structured data, removing all conversions / serialization at ingest and export boundaries. This alone can mean > 2-100x performance improvement in an application that processes a lot of data * The Arrow in-memory format is an ideal data structure to code analytical algorithms against.
