As Craig said, Crunchy has a very enterprise mature offering for analytics in Postgres and are very much leading the charge here. ParadeDB is built in a similar way, also ranking high on ClickBench, and is available in the open-source as well.

I'm hopeful the pg_duckdb project will mature enough to be a stable foundation for ParadeDB and others, but that appears to be a matter of MotherDuck and how much they're willing to push this forward.

Paradedb choose GPL. So i could see pg_duckdb accelerating past them. But then you never know each of them can change the license at any time

ParadeDB itself is AGPL, yes. Our core offering is pg_search, which offers Elasticsearch inside Postgres. What we build will be AGPL, and if pg_duckdb moves forward we will be happy to rebuild our analytics offering on top of it.

Hey Phil, the blogpost says pg_duckdb is being taken forward by duckdb labs, hydra, motherduck, neon, and microsoft azure. We're fully invested in developing pg_duckdb and I'm happy to work collaboratively- do you have something valuable to add to pg_duckdb?

There is a lot missing from it, as you know. We'd be happy to be part of the project if we get commit access/even partnership :)
