DuckDB Powering Interactive Notebooks
summary
Embeds DuckDB into a notebook product so a SQL cell can query Redshift and return results directly into a pandas DataFrame, and a DataFrame/CSV source can be exposed as a table with a single import call. Parses Google Sheets into multiple table ranges and sends them in Arrow format to DuckDB for ad hoc analysis. Runs DuckDB on Python and Node servers, evaluates DuckDB WASM for in‑browser execution, and reports major wins: native parquet/csv/Arrow support and large development time savings, bundle size being the main blocker.
