Hi! Thanks for your attention. We compared the main difference between Ballista and Blaze:
Ballista is a query execution engine implemented in Rust, and powered by Apache DataFusion, designed as an alternative to Spark-SQL. Blaze is designed to accelerate Apache Spark SQL by providing an alternative vectorized execution layer implemented in Rust, enabling native performance while maintaining full compatibility with Spark's APIs and ecosystem. 发件人: Owen O'Malley <o...@casa-chaos.org.INVALID> 日期: 星期五, 2025年7月25日 05:23 收件人: general@incubator.apache.org <general@incubator.apache.org> 主题: Re: [DISCUSS] Blaze Proposal I’m glad to see this project. It sounds exciting and fills an important need in the big data community. It would be interesting to see a comparison to Apache Ballista. ..
