Apache DataFusion

Website | API Docs | Chat

DataFusion is an extensible query engine written in Rust that uses Apache Arrow as its in-memory format.

This crate provides libraries and binaries for developers building fast and feature rich database and analytic systems, customized to particular workloads. See use cases for examples. The following related subprojects target end users:

DataFusion Python offers a Python interface for SQL and DataFrame queries.
DataFusion Comet is an accelerator for Apache Spark based on DataFusion.

"Out of the box," DataFusion offers [SQL] and [Dataframe] APIs, excellent performance, built-in support for CSV, Parquet, JSON, and Avro, extensive customization, and a great community.

DataFusion features a full query planner, a columnar, streaming, multi-threaded, vectorized execution engine, and partitioned data sources. You can customize DataFusion at almost all points including additional data sources, query languages, functions, custom operators and more. See the Architecture section for more details.

DataFusion API Evolution and Deprecation Guidelines

Public methods in Apache DataFusion evolve over time: while we try to maintain a stable API, we also improve the API over time. As a result, we typically deprecate methods before removing them, according to the deprecation guidelines.

Dependencies and `Cargo.lock`

Following the guidance on committing Cargo.lock files, this project commits its Cargo.lock file.

CI uses the committed Cargo.lock file, and dependencies are updated regularly using Dependabot PRs.
