What’s Next for DuckDB? 🦆🤔 Hannes Mühleisen, co-creator of DuckDB, was recently interviewed by Kris Jenkins of the Developer Voices podcast on every challenge, reward, twist, and turn of building a database as popular as DuckDB. From the early days of the product to the most recent acquisition of @ducklabs_com by @awscloud, Hannes – and what it means for the future of the open source DuckDB, DuckLake, and Quack projects*. It’s an interview as much as a story – an odyssey of what it means to build not only an open source product, but also a community, a company, and what success looks like in the day to day journey along the way. 📺 Watch the video episode (or read the transcript) here: 🎧 Or, listen wherever you get your podcasts. *Spoilers: DuckDB, DuckLake, Quack, and other open source projects in the DuckStack will remain open source and the project’s intellectual property, MIT license, and trademark are controlled by the DuckDB Foundation. The DuckLabs company is joining AWS, but the OSS projects remain OSS and controlled solely by the Foundation. 🦆 🦆
