As a consequence data versioning becomes code versioning. As raw data files are the same for everyone, tracking changes in the sql queries via got ensures reproducibility.* *in a research environment where “raw” data is in fact curated and immutable

At Nationalbanken our best practice for FS analyses in DST was - raw (sas) files transformed in parquets as is - data flows that load data in ram ready for analysis packed in a (series) of sql queries referring to the parquet files. Thanks to DuckDB, that’s seconds

Lack of training imho. It’s the sign of someone thinking of a linear storyline. Narrating a story. Makes sense in theory, but doesn’t work in practice.

Super link! Another killer feature of DuckDB not mentioned there which still feels like black magic is that you can join an existing pd.DataFrame in memory with a eg parquet file like df = get_data() duckdb.sql(“select a.x, b.y from ‘data.parquet’ as a inner join df as b on a.k=b.k”)
