### Purpose Related to [issue-6762](https://github.com/apache/paimon/issues/6762) ## 1. Overview ### 1.1 Background and Problem Statement Paimon is an open-source data lake storage system that supports efficient data queries and update operations. However, in the ML engineering field, Paimon lacks deep integration with mainstream ML frameworks (PyTorch, TensorFlow), leading to the following problems: **Main Issues:** 1. **Low Data Pipeline Efficiency** - No targeted performance optimization after reading data from Paimon - Optimization strategies like batching, prefetching, and caching cannot be automatically applied - Data loading becomes a bottleneck during ML training 2. **Insufficient Feature Engineering Capabilities** - Lack of standardized feature transformation tools (standardization, encoding, etc.) - Weak online feature computation capabilities - No feature caching mechanism 3. **Distributed Training Support Defects** - Cannot automatically handle data sharding and distributed strategies - Difficult data synchronization between workers - Hard to support multi-machine multi-GPU training 4. **Incomplete Sampling and Data Augmentation** - Single sampling strategy, unable to handle class imbalance - Limited data augmentation capabilities ### 1.2 Industry Benchmarking and Existing Solutions **Industry Benchmarks:** - **TensorFlow Data API**: Provides a complete data pipeline optimization framework - **PyTorch DataLoader**: Supports distributed sampling and efficient preloading - **Hugging Face Datasets**: Provides caching and feature processing capabilities - **Feature Store Systems** (e.g., Feast, Tecton): Provides online and offline feature computation **Paimon's Current Capabilities:** - Efficient columnar storage and ACID support - Flexible table structure and partitioning mechanism - Insufficient ML framework integration - Missing performance optimization toolchain --- ## 2.
