DuckDB is a lightweight, serverless SQL database engine embedded directly into your application. Unlike traditional databases (PostgreSQL, MySQL), DuckDB requires no separate server process. It runs in-process, reads from local or remote files (Parquet, CSV, JSON), and returns results instantly. Ideal for: data analytics tools, Jupyter notebooks, Python scripts, standalone applications, edge computing.
