Micah Kornfield commented on ARROW-9860:
----------------------------------------
I don't think there is an implementation of flight in JS yet. Probably the
fastest way to get data to the browser is to
[RecordBatchStreamWriter|[https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/ipc.html]] from
python over a websocket and the reading in JS. If bandwidth is a
consideration, python should now support compressing buffers (I need to double
check) but I don't think this support has been added to the JS implementation
yet.

> Key: ARROW-9860
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-9860
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Wish
> Components: JavaScript, Python
> Reporter: Alex Monahan
> Priority: Major
>
> Is it possible to use Apache Arrow Flight to send data from a Python Web
> Server to a JavaScript browser client? If it is possible, is there a code
> example to use to get started?
>
> If this is not possible, what is the fastest way to send data from a Python
> Web Server to Apache Arrow in the browser today? Would it be faster to send a
> Parquet file and unpack it client-side, or send Arrow directly/with gzip/
> etc.?
