Apache DataFusion
DataFusion is an extensible query engine written in Rust that uses Apache Arrow as its in-memory format.
This crate provides libraries and binaries for developers building fast and feature rich database and analytic systems, customized to particular workloads. See use cases for examples. The following related subprojects target end users:
- DataFusion Python offers a Python interface for SQL and DataFrame queries.
- DataFusion Ray provides a distributed version of DataFusion that scales out on Ray clusters.
- DataFusion Comet is an accelerator for Apache Spark based on DataFusion.
"Out of the box,"
DataFusion offers [SQL] and Dataframe
APIs, excellent performance,
built-in support for CSV, Parquet, JSON, and Avro, extensive customization, and
a great community.
DataFusion features a full query planner, a columnar, streaming, multi-threaded, vectorized execution engine, and partitioned data sources. You can customize DataFusion at almost all points including additional data sources, query languages, functions, custom operators and more. See the Architecture section for more details.

Rust Version Compatibility Policy
DataFusion's Minimum Required Stable Rust Version (MSRV) policy is to support stable 4 latest Rust versions OR the stable minor Rust version as of 4 months, whichever is lower.
For example, given the releases 1.78.0
, 1.79.0
, 1.80.0
, 1.80.1
and 1.81.0
DataFusion will support 1.78.0, which is 3 minor versions prior to the most minor recent 1.81
.
If a hotfix is released for the minimum supported Rust version (MSRV), the MSRV will be the minor version with all hotfixes, even if it surpasses the four-month window.
We enforce this policy using a MSRV CI Check
DataFusion API evolution policy
Public methods in Apache DataFusion are subject to evolve as part of the API lifecycle. Deprecated methods will be phased out in accordance with the policy, ensuring the API is stable and healthy.
