Handling Billions of Rows with SQL in Minutes Using DuckDB

Analyze massive datasets directly in memory — faster than ever

In this project, we will process massive datasets by loading them directly into memory, enabling faster analysis than traditional methods.

By leveraging in-memory processing, we can efficiently handle large volumes of data, extracting meaningful insights quickly and effectively.

While geospatial analysis is a central focus, the project’s primary objectives are:

• Mastering large-scale data manipulation
• Applying SQL-based analysis techniques
• Exploring high-performance tools for in-memory processing

This project integrates these concepts using geospatial data as a real-world example.

By the end, you’ll understand how to process large-scale data in memory, equipping you with valuable skills for future projects.
