Can DuckDB replace Snowflake?
For a large share of queries, yes. Snowflake's own public Snowset dataset (69 million customer queries from 2018) shows the median query scanned 5 MB and 96.2% scanned under 10 GB, a size DuckDB handles on one machine. The few very large queries still benefit from a warehouse. Greybeam routes each Snowflake query to DuckDB or Snowflake based on that split.
Is DuckDB free?
Yes. DuckDB is open source under the MIT license.
How do I get my project added?
