Connect ODBC Databases to DuckDB
I've created an ODBC DuckDB extension to query any database that has an ODBC driver. It's modeled after the fantastic official Postgres scanner extension https://github.com/duckdblabs/postgres_scanner.
It supports fetching rowsets in batches to minimize network overhead and defaults to the default DuckDB vector size of 2048.
I've tested it against the IBM DB2 & Postgres ODBC drivers and will continue to test and add support for all major databases. If you've got one you'd like to see let me know in the comments.
I've got plenty of improvements in the pipeline including:
-
DuckDB 0.7.0
It's not a dumb question at all. I'm pretty knowledgeable with DBs and still find it very difficult to understand how many of these front-end/pass-through engines work.
Checkout Postgres Foreign Data Wrappers. That might be the most well known approach for accessing one database through another. The Supabase team wrote an interesting piece about this recently.
https://supabase.com/blog/postgres-foreign-data-wrappers-rus...
You might also want to try out duckdb's approach to reading other DBs (or DB files). They talk about how they can "import" a sqlite DB in the above 0.7.0 announcement, but also have some other examples in their duckdblabs github project. Check out their "...-scanner" repos:

DuckDB – in-process SQL OLAP database management system
Doesn't postgres have a columnar option? If so, you could prob get better performance for your analytical interactions if you switched some tables to columnar.
Otherwise check out postgres scanner. https://github.com/duckdblabs/postgres_scanner

Notes on the SQLite DuckDB Paper
DuckDB can actually read SQLite or Postgres directly! In the SQLite case, something like Litestream plus DuckDB could work really well!
Also, with Pyarrow's help, DuckDB can already do this with Delta tables!

Friendlier SQL with DuckDB
Interesting thought! I have not tried this yet so I only have a guess as an answer. Could you export the data as SQL statements and then run those statements on DuckDB? That may be easier to set up, but may take longer to run...
DuckDB also has the ability to read Postgres data directly, and there is a Postgres FDW that can read from DuckDB!

Airplane acquired by Airtable and is shutting down
Congratulations to the Airplane team.
Is this Airtable moving in the direction of low-code rather than no code? Puts them up against tools like Budibase [https://github.com/Budibase/budibase] and Retool [Https://retool.com]

Pipe Dreams: The life and times of Yahoo Pipes
I skipped to chapter 9 in the article ("Clogged"), and it looked like Pipes failed because it didn't have a large enough team or a well-defined mission. As a result they couldn't offer a super robust product that would lure in enterprise users. "You could not purchase some number of guaranteed-to-work Pipes calls per month" is the quote from the article.
The reason I think that interesting is because that's the model these days for everything from AI tokens to Monday.com seats. It makes me feel like Pipes was before its time.
That said I've been collecting different "business glue" products that are similar to Pipes. To me, like you say, they aren't as interesting, exciting and intuitive as Pipes was, but maybe it just takes a little more digging. I tried to focus on open source tools but some aren't.
