----------------------------------
Summary: Zero-Copy Pandas Dataframe Reads
Key: ARROW-10573
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-10573
Project: Apache Arrow
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Python
Affects Versions: 2.0.0
Reporter: Nick White
Assignee: Nick White
Arrow should be able to expose an IPC message as a Pandas dataframe without
copying the data. This involves fixing:
* the alignment of the IPC message, so all columns of the same type are in
contiguous buffers and so can be exposed as the 2D arrays Pandas' block manager
expects.
* the `arrow_to_pandas.cc` code to make the UX work transparently.
