§SuperArray - Holds multiple arrays for chunked data partitioning, streaming + fast memIO
Contains SuperArray, a higher-order container representing a logical column split into
multiple immutable Array chunks with optional shared field metadata.
§Overview
- Equivalent to Apache Arrow’s
ChunkedArray. - Stores an ordered list of
Arraysegments with shared field metadata. - Chunk lengths may vary.
- A solid fit for append-only patterns, partitioned storage, and streaming data ingestion.
§Field Metadata
- Field metadata is stored once at the SuperArray level, not per-chunk.
- Use
from_arrays()when you don’t need field metadata (e.g., Dam consolidation) - Use
from_arrays_with_field()when field metadata is required
