Neal Richardson commented on ARROW-8056:
----------------------------------------
Sounds like a reasonable objective.
Since your packages are already using reticulate, I checked to see if
{{pyarrow}} wheels are built with ORC support, and it appears they are not
currently due to an issue with protobuf:
https://github.com/apache/arrow/pull/5627
So, yeah, sadly the biggest challenge would be in C++ build support.
What is the advantage of using ORC over parquet in Athena?
