For the uninitiated, Cython is the modern "gold standard" for interoperability with C++ libraries. I have used it recently to create Kudu's Python client (https://github.com/apache/incubator-kudu/tree/master/python/kudu). > A significant amount of Python "glue code" will be needed to interoperate with pandas, NumPy, and other standard Python libraries (in addition to Python's built-in scalar data types), but these will be the subject of many follow up JIRAs. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.3.4#6332)
