Big release day for MotherDuck! We're rolling out a new Business Plan and a huge number of new features. Cherrypicking a few small design details that I enjoyed working on below (see the blog post linked below for more product context)

We strive to ensure that the DuckDB project stays open-source in the long term. That's why we set up the DuckDB Foundation, an Amsterdam-based non-profit organization, in 2021. The Foundation owns the intellectual property of the DuckDB project and enshrines the availability of

Since the release of DuckDB v1.0.0 last summer, the time needed to run all TPC-H queries on the 300 GB data set went from 5 minutes to less than 2 minutes! These experiments were run on a MacBook Pro (M1 Max / 64 GB RAM) with the Hyperfine benchmark tool to reduce noise.

DuckDB got a local UI. Thanks to our friends at MotherDuck, you can now interact with your DuckDB database through an interactive notebook, running on localhost. Read the announcement blog post at duckdb.org/2025/03/12/duc…

💻 Can a 12-year old MacBook Pro run TPC-H on the 1 TB dataset (SF1,000)? 📈 It turns out that it can! In our latest blog post, Hannes explains how DuckDB can complete this workload, and how we have lost a decade of “small data”. See the full blog post at

Today we're launching DuckLake, an integrated data lake and catalog format powered by SQL. DuckLake unlocks next-generation data warehousing where compute is local, consistency central, and storage scales till infinity. ⁠DuckLake is an open standard and we've implemented it in

the team at DuckDB just released "DuckLake" and it's very, very interesting essentially, it would allow you to store a bunch of data in S3, and the catalog (which is used to organize the files) lives in your database. the nice thing: that database can be Postgres..

Took DuckLake for a spin this weekend and I was not disappointed. DuckDB nailed the experience we've been painfully stitching together at Definite with Iceberg + DuckDB.

DuckLake is one of the most exciting technologies in data. While data lakes are powerful, the formats that manage them have become notoriously difficult to work with. How does it achieve this? Instead of building a custom catalog server, DuckLake uses a simple, elegant idea: a
