`Quack`: Client-Server Protocol for `DuckDB`
It adds remote state sync so multiple processes can write to the same DuckDB file without abandoning the in-process model. That opens a practical middle ground between embedded analytics and a full database server, worth tracking early.
- Remote protocol handles state synchronization needed when multiple processes modify one database file, not a separate heavyweight server core.
- The design keeps
DuckDB's in-process architecture while enabling client-server style access and concurrent writers in the same database. - This lowers the jump from local analytics to multi-process apps; teams using
DuckDBmay get shared-write workflows without moving toPostgresimmediately.
