[jira] [Commented] (ARROW-11558) [C++] Push down projection and selection to S3 Select

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-11558?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=17286849#comment-17286849 ] 

Will Jones commented on ARROW-11558:
------------------------------------

I am also interested to see what situations s3 select is beneficial.

However, I wonder which parts do you think should be part of the Arrow library?

From what I can tell, the S3 Select endpoints give back a stream of JSON or CSV, which you could probably deserialize with the existing Arrow JSON and CSV readers. So this might be functionality you could build _using_ Arrow, rather than need to build _into_ Arrow. In fact, much of this might be more appropriate to have in [AWS Data Wrangler|https://github.com/awslabs/aws-data-wrangler], which already uses the Arrow library for reading parquet from S3.

> Amazon S3 Select [1], an S3 feature generally available since April 2018 [2], can improve S3 read performance by allowing S3 clients to use a limited subset of SQL to specify projection and selection [3] on data in some formats [4]. It would be interesting to try using this in Arrow and to measure its effects on S3 read performance under various conditions.
