DuckDB

DuckDB is an in-memory relational database, using SQL to query data. That data can come from files, but it can also come from Pandas data frames — and often, a DuckDB query on a data frame will end up running faster than the native Pandas methods. In this webinar recording, I introduce you to DuckDB, showing you how it works in general and (especially) with Pandas.
