This is very nice. Look forward to trying it out. One should get
performance improvements on hardware with better interconnects, so
performance just with TCP is not illustrative of all cases.

implementing or exposing them in the future, or looking at making sure Arrow's

I think this is really interesting and a really good starting point. :-)
Like Keith said, this paves way to use shared memory execution backends. In
our experience at Cylon, these backends give good scalability for data
engineering jobs.

I ended up drafting an implementation of Flight based on UCX, and doing some
of the necessary refactoring to support additional backends in the future.
It can run the Flight benchmark, and performance is about comparable to
gRPC, as tested on AWS EC2.
The implementation is based on the UCP streams

Thanks for the clarification Yibo, looking forward to the results. Even if it
is a very hacky PoC it will be interesting to see how it affects performance,
though as Keith points out there are benefits in general to UCX (or similar
library), and we can work out the implementation plan from there
UCX is interesting, relatively new and seems like it may be easier to
integrate. MPI is the most commonly used backend for HPC. Influencing
the development of UCX is more difficult than influencing the
development of MPI, but both have a slower pace of development than
Arrow. One may want to co
Outside of just HPC, integrating UCX would potentially allow taking
advantage of its shared memory backend which would be interesting from a
performance perspective in the single-node, multi-process case in many
situations.
Not sure it's worth the UCX dependency in the long run, but would allow us

Hi Yibo,

I also realized we never asked, what is motivating Flight in this space in the
first place? Presumably broader Arrow support in general?

I would support doing the work necessary to get UCX (or really any other

UCX allow the user to use various transportation protocols without having to be
aware of which protocol is being used under the hood. The image at the top of
this page gives a good explanation of how this happens

There's nothing stopping us from transmitting HTTP/2 or another binary
protocol over UCX. You can think of UCX as a transport layer abstraction
library which allows transparently taking advantage of things like RDMA
over InfiniBand / RoCE, inter-process shared memory, TCP sockets, etc.

We have some rough ideas of applying Flight in HPC (High Performance
