This fall, DuckDB will support larger than memory indexes! I'm really excited about it. https://duckdb.org/2026/08/17/duckdb-20-highlights#7-storage...

Sorry you hit that! This is actually already working on version 1.2.2. Could you install that version? That should get you going for the moment! We will dig into what you ran into.

IN list filter predicate pushdown is much improved in DuckDB 1.2, coming in about a week! I am not sure if it applies to Arrow yet or not. Disclaimer: I work at MotherDuck and DuckDB Labs

That is very surprising to hear! If you can reproduce it, could you please file a bug report on GitHub? That would be a huge help!!

Hello! I would recommend trying out DuckDB's SQLite attach feature! You can read or write data, and even make schema changes, all with DuckDB's engine and syntax. The storage then uses SQLite, which is row oriented! https:/&

Howdy! I work at MotherDuck and DuckDB Labs (part time as a blogger). At MotherDuck, we have both client side and server side compute! So the initial reduction from PB/TB to GB/MB can happen server side, and the results can be sli

Howdy! Thanks for your benchmarking! Your blog does a great job contrasting the two use cases. I don't think too much has changed on your main use case, however here are a few ideas to test out! DuckDB can read SQLite files now! So if

We heard your feedback! Backward compatibility was just implemented! Version 0.9 is actually fully readable by 0.10. With version 1.0 coming in a few months, this will be readable for several years' worth of version updates.

You could definitely run a pivot with the SQLite attach! All of the DuckDB syntax works!

Great question! For analytical queries, DuckDB is ~100x faster than SQLite. It also has great connectivity with Parquet, Pandas, Arrow, Postgres, and more! Plus, the syntax follows Postgres closely, so you have strong data typing and true t

Sorry to hear that! (I work on docs for the DuckDB Foundation) Starting in this release, the DuckDB team invested significantly in adding memory safety throughout catalog operations. There is more on the roadmap, but I would expect this rel

You can think of the attach operation as creating views in DuckDB with Postgres tables underneath! DuckDB will then query those Postgres rows (using the typical Postgres wire protocol, except in binary mode). No data is persisted in DuckDB

Yes, DuckDB supports writing lists and structs to Parquet! https://github.com/duckdb/duckdb/pull/2832 Does that help or do you have any other questions?
