ADBC drivers in #Java? Yes. The latest release of ADBC adds a JNI layer that lets Java apps load drivers, run queries, and fetch results fast in @arrow.apache.org format. Read the new blog post from @ian.columnar.tech and David Li for examples and perf comparisons vs. JDBC. Link in comments👇

Hanami 2.3 is out! This is a fantastic release, with improvements all across the stack, but the thing I’m most proud of is the whopping THIRTY TWO Rubyists who’ve chosen to contribute and make Hanami better. Thank you everyone! 🥰
🌸 Hanami 2.3 is here, and it’s racked and ready!
This is our biggest release yet. Rack 3, resource routes, and so much more.
