Apache Arrow works well as an in-memory data format. Arrow data can be shared between multiple libraries without copying, serialization or desearialization.

Apache Arrow and Apache Parquet are often used together. Tabular data can be stored in Apache Parquet format, which compresses well, and converted to Apache Arrow for analysis. Arrow does not compress as well as Parquet, but performs better for data analysis in RAM.

CSV files store tabular data and are often used by spreadsheet applications.

The first row is usually a header row with the column names. Each row is stored as comma separated values, where each value has a comma between it and the next one.
