Polars
Blazingly fast DataFrames in Rust & Python
Polars is a blazingly fast DataFrames library implemented in Rust using Apache Arrow(2) as memory model.
- Lazy | eager execution
- Multi-threaded
- SIMD
- Query optimization
- Powerful expression API
- Rust | Python | ...

>>> df = pl.DataFrame(
{
"A": [1, 2, 3, 4, 5],
"fruits": ["banana", "banana", "apple", "apple", "banana"],
"B": [5, 4, 3, 2, 1],
"cars": ["beetle", "audi", "beetle", "beetle", "beetle"],
}
)
# embarrassingly parallel execution
# very expressive query language
>>> (df

.select([
"fruits",
"cars",
lit("fruits").alias("literal_string_fruits"),
col("B").filter(col("cars") == "beetle").sum(),
col("A").filter(col("B") > 2).sum().over("cars").alias("sum_A_by_cars"), # groups by "cars"
col("A").sum().over("fruits").alias("sum_A_by_fruits"), # groups by "fruits"
col("A").reverse().over("fruits").flatten().alias("rev_A_by_fruits"), # groups by "fruits

Performance 🚀🚀
Polars is very fast, and in fact is one of the best performing solutions available. See the results in h2oai's db-benchmark.
Rust setup
You can take latest release from crates.io
, or if you want to use the latest features/ performance improvements
point to the master
branch of this repo.
polars = { git = "https://github.com/pola-rs/polars", rev = "<optional git tag>" }
Rust version
Required Rust version >=1.52
Python users read this!
Polars is currently transitioning from py-polars
to polars
. Some docs may still refer the old name.
Install the latest polars version with:
$ pip3 install polars

[Python] compile py-polars from source
If you want a bleeding edge release or maximal performance you should compile py-polars from source.
This can be done by going through the following steps in sequence:
- install the latest Rust compiler
$ pip3 install maturin
- Choose any of:
- Very long compile times, fastest binary:
$ cd py-polars && maturin develop --rustc-extra-args="-C target-cpu=native" --release
- Shorter compile times, fast binary:
$ cd py-polars && maturin develop --rustc-extra-args="-C codegen-units=16 -C lto=thin -C target-cpu=native" --release
Note that the Rust crate implementing the Python bindings is called py-polars
to distinguish from the wrapped
Rust crate polars
itself. However, both the Python package and the Python module are named polars
, so you
can pip install polars
and import polars
(previously, these were called py-polars
and pypolars
).
Arrow2
Polars has transitioned to arrow2. Arrow2 is a faster and safer implementation of the arrow spec.
Arrow2 also has a more granular code base, helping to reduce the compiler bloat.
There is still a maintained arrow-rs
branch for users who want to use another backend.
