Users had to choose between data swamp chaos or a maze of metadata files with catalog servers on top. DuckLake is a new paradigm for managing data on object stores: First, it uses classical SQL data management systems to manage metadata. Second, actual data is stored in Parquet files on pretty arbitrary storage. Third, processing queries is done client-side, or anywhere really. DuckDB is the first system to integrate with DuckLake using an extension with the same name. Conceptually, DuckLake enables central control over truth while decentralizing compute and storage entirely. DuckLake turns data warehouse architecture upside down by departing from the integrated metadata/compute layer towards a fully disconnected operation with only centralized metadata. For the first time, DuckLake allows a “multi-player” experience with DuckDB, where computation stays fully local, but transactional control is centralized.// BioHannes Mühleisen 🔈 is a creator of the DuckDB database management system and Co-founder and CEO of DuckDB Labs.
