+<p>We are happy to announce that <a 
href="https://pypi.org/project/datafusion/44.0.0/";>datafusion-python 44.0.0</a> 
has been released. This release
+brings in all of the new features of the core <a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/dev/changelog/44.0.0.md";>DataFusion
 44.0.0</a> library. You can see the
+full details of the improvements in the <a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/tree/main/dev/changelog";>changelogs</a>.</p>
+<h2>Asynchronous Iteration of Record Batches</h2>
+<p>Retrieving a <code>RecordBatch</code> from a <code>RecordBatchStream</code> 
was a synchronous call, which would
+require the end user's code to wait for the data retrieval. This is described 
in
+<a href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/issues/974";>Issue 
974</a>. We continue to support this as a synchronous iterator, but we have 
also added
+in the ability to retrieve the <code>RecordBatch</code> using the Python 
asynchronous <code>anext</code>
+function.</p>
+<h1>Default Compression for Parquet files</h1>
+<p>With <a href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/pull/981";>PR 
981</a>, we change the saving of Parquet files to use zstd compression by 
default.
+Previously the default was uncompressed, causing excessive disk storage. Zstd 
is an
+excellent compression scheme that balances speed and compression ratio. Users 
can still
+save their Parquet files uncompressed by passing in the appropriate value to 
the
+<code>compression</code> argument when calling 
<code>DataFrame.write_parquet</code>.</p>
+<h2><code>uv</code> package management</h2>
+<p><a href="https://github.com/astral-sh/uv";>uv</a> is an extremely fast 
Python package manager, written in Rust. In the previous version
+of <code>datafusion-python</code> we had a combination of settings of PyPi and 
Conda. Instead, we
+switch to using <a href="https://github.com/astral-sh/uv";>uv</a> is our 
primary method for dependency management.</p>
+<p>For most users of DataFusion, this change will be transparent. You can 
still install
+via <code>pip</code> or <code>conda</code>. For developers, the instructions 
in the repository have been updated.</p>
+<h2>Migration Guide</h2>
+<p>During the upgrade from <a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/dev/changelog/43.0.0.md";>DataFusion
 43.0.0</a> to <a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/dev/changelog/44.0.0.md";>DataFusion
 44.0.0</a> as our upstream core
+dependency, we discovered a few changes were necessary within our repository 
and our
+unit tests. These notes serve to help guide users who may encounter similar 
issues when
+upgrading.</p>
+<ul>
+<li><code>RuntimeConfig</code> is now deprecated in favor of 
<code>RuntimeEnvBuilder</code>. The migration is
+fairly straightforward, and the corresponding classes have been marked as 
deprecated. For
+end users it should be simply a matter of changing the class name.</li>
+<li>If you perform a <code>concat</code> of a <code>string_view</code> and 
<code>string</code>, it will now return a
+<code>string_view</code> instead of a <code>string</code>. This likely only 
impacts unit tests that are validating
+return types. In general, it is recommended to switch to using 
<code>string_view</code> whenever 
+possible. You can see the blog articles <a 
href="https://datafusion.apache.org/blog/2024/09/13/string-view-german-style-strings-part-1/";>String
 View Pt 1</a> and <a 
href="https://datafusion.apache.org/blog/2024/09/13/string-view-german-style-strings-part-2/";>Pt
 2</a> for more information
+on these performance improvements.</li>
+<li>The function <code>date_part</code> now returns an <code>int32</code> 
instead of a <code>float64</code>. This is likely
+only impactful to unit tests.</li>
+</ul>
+<h2>Appreciation</h2>
+<p>We would like to thank everyone who has helped with these releases through 
their helpful
+conversations, code review, issue descriptions, and code authoring. We would 
especially

+&lt;p&gt;We are happy to announce that &lt;a 
href="https://pypi.org/project/datafusion/44.0.0/"&gt;datafusion-python 
44.0.0&lt;/a&gt; has been released. This release
+brings in all of the new features of the core &lt;a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/dev/changelog/44.0.0.md"&gt;DataFusion
 44.0.0&lt;/a&gt; library. You can see the
+full details of the improvements in the &lt;a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/tree/main/dev/changelog"&gt;changelogs&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h2&gt;Asynchronous Iteration of Record Batches&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;Retrieving a &lt;code&gt;RecordBatch&lt;/code&gt; from a 
&lt;code&gt;RecordBatchStream&lt;/code&gt; was a synchronous call, which would
+require the end user's code to wait for the data retrieval. This is described 
in
+&lt;a href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/issues/974"&gt;Issue 
974&lt;/a&gt;. We continue to support this as a synchronous iterator, but we 
have also added
+in the ability to retrieve the &lt;code&gt;RecordBatch&lt;/code&gt; using the 
Python asynchronous &lt;code&gt;anext&lt;/code&gt;
+function.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h1&gt;Default Compression for Parquet files&lt;/h1&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;With &lt;a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/pull/981"&gt;PR 
981&lt;/a&gt;, we change the saving of Parquet files to use zstd compression by 
default.
+Previously the default was uncompressed, causing excessive disk storage. Zstd 
is an
+excellent compression scheme that balances speed and compression ratio. Users 
can still
+save their Parquet files uncompressed by passing in the appropriate value to 
the
+&lt;code&gt;compression&lt;/code&gt; argument when calling 
&lt;code&gt;DataFrame.write_parquet&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h2&gt;&lt;code&gt;uv&lt;/code&gt; package management&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/astral-sh/uv"&gt;uv&lt;/a&gt; is an 
extremely fast Python package manager, written in Rust. In the previous version
+of &lt;code&gt;datafusion-python&lt;/code&gt; we had a combination of settings 
of PyPi and Conda. Instead, we
+switch to using &lt;a href="https://github.com/astral-sh/uv"&gt;uv&lt;/a&gt; 
is our primary method for dependency management.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;For most users of DataFusion, this change will be transparent. You 
can still install
+via &lt;code&gt;pip&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code&gt;conda&lt;/code&gt;. For 
developers, the instructions in the repository have been updated.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h2&gt;Migration Guide&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;During the upgrade from &lt;a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/dev/changelog/43.0.0.md"&gt;DataFusion
 43.0.0&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/dev/changelog/44.0.0.md"&gt;DataFusion
 44.0.0&lt;/a&gt; as our upstream core
+dependency, we discovered a few changes were necessary within our repository 
and our
+unit tests. These notes serve to help guide users who may encounter similar 
issues when
+upgrading.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;ul&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;&lt;code&gt;RuntimeConfig&lt;/code&gt; is now deprecated in favor of 
&lt;code&gt;RuntimeEnvBuilder&lt;/code&gt;. The migration is
+fairly straightforward, and the corresponding classes have been marked as 
deprecated. For
+end users it should be simply a matter of changing the class name.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;If you perform a &lt;code&gt;concat&lt;/code&gt; of a 
&lt;code&gt;string_view&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;string&lt;/code&gt;, it 
will now return a
+&lt;code&gt;string_view&lt;/code&gt; instead of a 
&lt;code&gt;string&lt;/code&gt;. This likely only impacts unit tests that are 
validating
+return types. In general, it is recommended to switch to using 
&lt;code&gt;string_view&lt;/code&gt; whenever 
+possible. You can see the blog articles &lt;a 
href="https://datafusion.apache.org/blog/2024/09/13/string-view-german-style-strings-part-1/"&gt;String
 View Pt 1&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a 
href="https://datafusion.apache.org/blog/2024/09/13/string-view-german-style-strings-part-2/"&gt;Pt
 2&lt;/a&gt; for more information
+on these performance improvements.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;The function &lt;code&gt;date_part&lt;/code&gt; now returns an 
&lt;code&gt;int32&lt;/code&gt; instead of a &lt;code&gt;float64&lt;/code&gt;. 
This is likely
+only impactful to unit tests.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+&lt;h2&gt;Appreciation&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;We would like to thank everyone who has helped with these releases 
through their helpful
+conversations, code review, issue descriptions, and code authoring. We would 
especially

&lt;code&gt;RecordBatchStream&lt;/code&gt; was a synchronous call, which would
+require the end user's code to wait for the data retrieval. This is described 
in
+&lt;a href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/issues/974"&gt;Issue 
974&lt;/a&gt;. We continue to support this as a synchronous iterator, but we 
have also added
+in the ability to retrieve the &lt;code&gt;RecordBatch&lt;/code&gt; using the 
Python asynchronous &lt;code&gt;anext&lt;/code&gt;
+function.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h1&gt;Default Compression for Parquet files&lt;/h1&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;With &lt;a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/pull/981"&gt;PR 
981&lt;/a&gt;, we change the saving of Parquet files to use zstd compression by 
default.
+Previously the default was uncompressed, causing excessive disk storage. Zstd 
is an
+excellent compression scheme that balances speed and compression ratio. Users 
can still
+save their Parquet files uncompressed by passing in the appropriate value to 
the
+&lt;code&gt;compression&lt;/code&gt; argument when calling 
&lt;code&gt;DataFrame.write_parquet&lt;/code&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h2&gt;&lt;code&gt;uv&lt;/code&gt; package management&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://github.com/astral-sh/uv"&gt;uv&lt;/a&gt; is an 
extremely fast Python package manager, written in Rust. In the previous version
+of &lt;code&gt;datafusion-python&lt;/code&gt; we had a combination of settings 
of PyPi and Conda. Instead, we
+switch to using &lt;a href="https://github.com/astral-sh/uv"&gt;uv&lt;/a&gt; 
is our primary method for dependency management.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;For most users of DataFusion, this change will be transparent. You 
can still install
+via &lt;code&gt;pip&lt;/code&gt; or &lt;code&gt;conda&lt;/code&gt;. For 
developers, the instructions in the repository have been updated.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;h2&gt;Migration Guide&lt;/h2&gt;
+&lt;p&gt;During the upgrade from &lt;a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/dev/changelog/43.0.0.md"&gt;DataFusion
 43.0.0&lt;/a&gt; to &lt;a 
href="https://github.com/apache/datafusion/blob/main/dev/changelog/44.0.0.md"&gt;DataFusion
 44.0.0&lt;/a&gt; as our upstream core
+dependency, we discovered a few changes were necessary within our repository 
and our
+unit tests. These notes serve to help guide users who may encounter similar 
issues when
+upgrading.&lt;/p&gt;
+&lt;ul&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;&lt;code&gt;RuntimeConfig&lt;/code&gt; is now deprecated in favor of 
&lt;code&gt;RuntimeEnvBuilder&lt;/code&gt;. The migration is
+fairly straightforward, and the corresponding classes have been marked as 
deprecated. For
+end users it should be simply a matter of changing the class name.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;If you perform a &lt;code&gt;concat&lt;/code&gt; of a 
&lt;code&gt;string_view&lt;/code&gt; and &lt;code&gt;string&lt;/code&gt;, it 
will now return a
+&lt;code&gt;string_view&lt;/code&gt; instead of a 
&lt;code&gt;string&lt;/code&gt;. This likely only impacts unit tests that are 
validating
+return types. In general, it is recommended to switch to using 
&lt;code&gt;string_view&lt;/code&gt; whenever 
+possible. You can see the blog articles &lt;a 
href="https://datafusion.apache.org/blog/2024/09/13/string-view-german-style-strings-part-1/"&gt;String
 View Pt 1&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a 
href="https://datafusion.apache.org/blog/2024/09/13/string-view-german-style-strings-part-2/"&gt;Pt
 2&lt;/a&gt; for more information
+on these performance improvements.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;li&gt;The function &lt;code&gt;date_part&lt;/code&gt; now returns an 
&lt;code&gt;int32&lt;/code&gt; instead of a &lt;code&gt;float64&lt;/code&gt;. 
This is likely
+only impactful to unit tests.&lt;/li&gt;
+&lt;/ul&gt;
+&lt;h2&gt;Appreciation&lt;/h2&gt;
