Feather is a fast, interoperable binary data frame storage format designed for efficient data exchange between analysis tools. It provides columnar serialization for data frames, making read and write operations faster than many text-based formats. The project was built to make sharing data across languages such as Python and R easier. Feather is powered by the Apache Arrow columnar memory specification, which helps it represent numeric, string, categorical, date, timestamp, boolean, and binary data efficiently. It also supports null and missing values across column types. Current development continues through Apache Arrow, with modern Python usage handled through pyarrow.feather.
