Apache debuts top level open source Big Data analytics project that could make data analytics processing a hundred times faster.
The Apache Software Foundation is rolling out a new top level project this week, and it's one that didn't first have to undergo the typical project incubation phase. Apache Arrow, an effort to build columnar in-memory analytics technology that could dramatically accelerate Big Data analytics, is launching with support from 13 major open source Big Data projects.
