Description

Is it possible to use Apache Arrow Flight to send data from a Python Web Server to a JavaScript browser client? If it is possible, is there a code example to use to get started? 

 

If this is not possible, what is the fastest way to send data from a Python Web Server to Apache Arrow in the browser today? Would it be faster to send a Parquet file and unpack it client-side, or send Arrow directly/with gzip/ etc.?
