This suggestion includes @westonpace 's next few comments and the following bullet points: ``` The Arrow Datasets library provides a unified interface for operations on tabular data from various sources, in various formats. The data may be from buffers, local filesystems, and cloud filesystems; and may be larger than memory or span multiple units (e.g. multiple files). Some supported data formats include parquet, feather, and IPC. Some supported operations include discovery, predicate pushdowns, and read parallelism. ``` -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
