CASD invites you to a new Web Data Tech session dedicated to DuckDB.
A previous webinar on Parquet/DuckDB focused primarily on the Parquet format. This session will center on the DuckDB tool itself and the numerous features that make it essential for high-performance data processing today. Key topics will include:
-
General architectural features (In-process, database file, configurationless, vectorization, etc.)
-
Syntax features (FROM-first, negative SELECT, etc.)
-
Window functions – for calculations across groups of rows (rank, lag, etc.)
-
Disk and RAM optimization: encoding, streaming, RAM limits, etc.
-
Extensions and modules (UI, Spatial, Parquet, S3, etc.)
-
Usage examples with R, Python, and Julia
