We are proud to sponsor @cidrdb, the Conference on Innovative Data Systems Research, for the next 5 years. And every other year, CIDR is hosted in our hometown of Amsterdam, so we hope to see you around!

Today, @ducklabs_com is joining @awscloud. The move is expected to be completed by early September.
Joining AWS gives DuckLabs the resources and reach to bring DuckDB, DuckLake, and the Quack protocol to many more developers and organizations – and to pursue ideas at a scale that would have been difficult for us to reach alone.
The DuckLabs team will remain together in Amsterdam and will continue working for the Duck Stack community as an AWS subsidiary.
Most importantly, #DuckDB and the other open source components of the Duck Stack will remain free and open source under the MIT license, with the non-profit DuckDB Foundation continuing its stewardship of the projects.
This is a significant moment for DuckLabs and the Duck Stack community. It marks the end of one chapter that we are immensely proud of, and the beginning of another that we believe will take DuckDB much further.

DuckDB Labs becomes DuckLabs. We ended up working on more than DuckDB, i.e., DuckLake and most recently, Quack. It was time to change the company name to reflect this. Nothing else changes – read our blog post for more details.

We recently sponsored Hack4Her, a female-focused student hackathon in the Netherlands. During the DuckDB Challenge of the event, teams built a community-driven app providing safe walking routes in Amsterdam using DuckDB and its geospatial library.

DuckDB Labs is proud to sponsor @icdeconf 2024, where the algorithm that powers @duckdb's latest larger-than-memory aggregation feature will be presented. The paper is co-authored by @lnkuiper, @peterabcz, and @hfmuehleisen. See you in Utrecht!
This blog post is a short summary of the ICDE 2024
(@icdeconf) paper authored by @lnkuiper, @peterabcz, and @hfmuehleisen: Robust External Hash Aggregation in the Solid State Age.

We are sponsoring the 40th edition of @icdeconf, held in Utrecht, NL, between May 13 and 16. ICDE is a top-tier academic database research conference where several ideas used in @DuckDB (such as Adaptive Radix Trees for indexes) were originally published.
