We're pleased to present Alex Kesling on Apache Arrow DataFusion: a Fast, Embeddable, Modular Analytic Query Engine (Read the Paper)
DataFusion represents a new category of database technologies: "deconstructed databases". It's a relational engine on which you can graft any language frontend (with SQL provided out of the box) & point it at any data you want.
How could one technology possibly do the same work as SQLite, PostgreSQL, Pandas, DuckDB, what-have-you all in one package? Let's read the paper & talk about it.
Alex Kesling is the cofounder of Empathic, a new company exploring the intersection of enterprise data infrastructure & agentic AI. He previously worked on Google's Search & Knowledge Graph infrastructure, VR/AR tools for teachers, & a plethora of consulting projects. Alex loves systems design, time series visualization, distributed systems, & that one turkey sandwich the day after Thanksgiving.
