> i'm sure you have already discussed this, but i would like to know why we are not migrating to arrow and cannot find any information about this decision. As far as i know, arrow was inspired by drill and on the arrow homepage they have still the picture with drill on it but drill does not use arrow. https://arrow.apache.org/overview/ > Is there any official statement from the project for the arrow support/migration? @Z0ltrix there isn't an official statement that I know of. It's too big a question for a comment thread answer and a good topic for a community meetup with some senior devs present. I believe that to some extent Drill's vector engine has developed in its own direction since Arrow arrived and the best route forward for Drill is now not entirely obvious, and needs some thought. Significant pros for Arrow are that it is maintained externally and I believe its performance is very good. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
