Finally, I think, a compiled binary is handy for command line tools. Admittedly, you have to compile it first, which will take some time. But then you can put ~/.cargo/bin to your PATH, install the latest version from crates.io via cargo install pigeon-rs, and use the binary from everywhere. In Python you would need an alias first because otherwise you would always have to type python3 path/to/python/file. And might have to worry that the command line arguments are piped to the python executable?

Apache Arrow
Apache Arrow is a multi-language toolbox for accelerated data interchange and in-memory processing
Connectorx is using arrow2 data format for fetching from a database. This data format is optimized for columnar data [1]:

The problem with a crate like postgres is that you have to define the types of the query at compile-time. And if you use the simple query protocol in postgres, you just get a bunch of strings, i.e. no proper typing at all. However, for maximal flexibility arbitrary queries should work in pigeon, without knowing the database schema.

InfluxDB
Access the most powerful time series database as a service. Ingest, store, & analyze all types of time series data in a fully-managed, purpose-built database. Keep data forever with low-cost storage and superior data compression.
