About DuckDB
Processing and storing tabular datasets, e.g. from CSV or Parquet files. Large result set transfer to client. Large client/server installations for centralized enterprise data warehousing. Writing to a single database from multiple concurrent processes. DuckDB is a relational database management system (RDBMS). That means it is a system for managing data stored in relations. A relation is essentially a mathematical term for a table. Each table is a named collection of rows. Each row of a given table has the same set of named columns, and each column is of a specific data type. Tables themselves are stored inside schemas, and a collection of schemas constitutes the entire database that you can access.
