Article:https://hikmahtechnologies.com/blog/duckdb-in-production-what-its-good-at/
It's an operator's account of where DuckDB fits in production and where it doesn't, written from systems I run rather than from benchmarks — the three deployment patterns that hold up, the anti-pattern behind most "DuckDB is unreliable" posts, and a limitations section covering single-process writes, the missing governance layer, and memory and spill behaviour.
Vendor-neutral: I'm not selling DuckDB or anything built on it, and the post is as direct about where it's the wrong choice as where it isn't.
Thanks for curating the newsletter — it's a genuinely useful read each week.
