Hi all, As some of you may have already noticed, a new repository for Hudi has been created: https://github.com/apache/hudi-rs/
This repository hosts a native Rust implementation of Hudi and provides Python APIs on top of it. The goal is to enable Hudi to integrate with a broader range of frameworks and better serve users' needs, specifically in the Rust/Python/AI/ML ecosystem. In its debut, the functionalities are limited to: - COW table snapshots and time-travel reads - Rust and Python APIs for retrieving table schemas and reading tables into RecordBatch (Arrow) - Integration with Apache DataFusion - Support for AWS, Azure, and GCP cloud storage schemes Leveraging this foundation, we have more integration work planned within the ecosystem. In the meantime, it's important to establish a release cadence and share it with the community. The immediate next few steps are: - follow ASF guidelines and define release process for both Rust and Python - upload artifacts as per the process - start a VOTE thread for the first release candidate 0.1.0-rc1 Cheers -- Best, Shiyan
