Apache DataFusion is a very fast, extensible query engine for building high-quality data-centric systems in
[Rust](http://rustlang.org), using the [Apache Arrow](https://arrow.apache.org)
in-memory format. [Python Bindings](https://github.com/apache/datafusion-python) are also available. DataFusion offers SQL and Dataframe APIs, excellent [performance](https://benchmark.clickhouse.com/), built-in support for CSV, Parquet, JSON, and Avro, extensive customization, and a great community.

## Rust Version Compatibility Policy

DataFusion's Minimum Required Stable Rust Version (MSRV) policy is to support
each stable Rust version for 6 months after it is
[released](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/master/RELEASES.md). This
generally translates to support for the most recent 3 to 4 stable Rust versions.

We enforce this policy using a [MSRV CI Check](https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Aapache%2Fdatafusion+rust-version+language%3ATOML+path%3A%2F%5ECargo.toml%2F&type=code)
