Battling the CPU Bottleneck in Apache Parquet to Arrow Conversion Using FPGA

In the domain of big data analytics, the bottleneck of converting storage-focused file formats to in-memory data structures has shifted from the bandwidth of storage to the performance of decoding and decompression software. Two widely used formats for big data storage and in-memory data are Apache Parquet and Apache Arrow, respectively. In order to improve the speed at which data can be loaded fr...
