+We are happy to announce that [datafusion-python 46.0.0] has been released. 
This release
+brings in all of the new features of the core [DataFusion 46.0.0] library. 
Since the last
+blog post for [datafusion-python 43.1.0], a large number of improvements have 
been made
+that can be found in the [changelogs].
+
+We highly recommend reviewing the upstream [DataFusion 46.0.0] announcement.

+## Easier file reading
+
+https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python/pull/982
+
+```python
+from datafusion.io import read_parquet
+df = read_parquet(path="./examples/tpch/data/customer.parquet")
+```
+
+```python
+import datafusion
+ctx = datafusion.SessionContext().enable_url_table()
+df = ctx.table("./examples/tpch/data/customer.parquet")
+```
+
+## Registering Table Views
+
+DataFusion supports registering a logical plan as a view with a session 
context. This
+allows for work flows to create views in one part of the work flow and pass 
the session
+context around to other places where that logical plan can be reused. This is 
an useful
+feature for building up complex workflows and for code clarity. [PR 1016] 
enables this
+feature in `datafusion-python`.
+
+For example, supposing you have a DataFrame called `df1`, you could use this 
code snippet
+to register the view and then use it in another place:
+
+```python
+ctx.register_view("view1", df1)
+```
+
+And then in another portion of your code which has access to the same session 
context
+you can retrive the DataFrame with:
+
+```
+df2 = ctx.table("view1")
+```
