Explains a concrete execution path using Apache Arrow as the in-memory columnar format, JIT-compiling expression trees with Gandiva, and moving data with Arrow Flight; claims vectorized operators (hash join, aggregation) and CPU SIMD reduce instruction count and boost throughput — a 5M-row ODBC load drops from 54s (pyodbc) or 22s (turbo) to 1.3 seconds with pyarrow, and one customer workload shows up to 70x speedup; Dremio is implemented on these pieces and runs in production across hundreds of customers.
