Description
DuckDB lets you run fast, powerful SQL analytics directly on your data files without setting up a separate database server. Just embed it in your app or use the command-line tool to query CSV, Parquet, and JSON instantly. The bottom line: enterprise-grade analytics with zero infrastructure.
