Wow, that is really cool. One of my theses is that DuckDB will be bought by GCP (BigQuery), and polars will be bought by Databricks (or AWS). The thesis is based on the idea that Snowflake bought the Modin platform. The movement in DE seems to be towards data warehouse platforms streaming data (views/results) down to dataframe (Modin, Polars, DuckDB) platforms, which then stream down to their BI platforms. Because these database platforms are designed as OLAP platforms so, this approach makes sense.
