Vizier – A physical design advisor for DuckDB
Hi, I've made an early version of a physical design advisor (called Vizier) for DuckDB.

Vizier is implemented as a DuckDB extension in Zig and supports DuckDB version 1.2.0 and newer. The project is very early-stage, but if you're interested in learning more about Vizier or trying it out, you can check out the links below: Project's GitHub repo:…

I used to work in strategy consulting, doing data analytics for SMBs and Fortune 500 companies. The amount of time wasted on menial tasks was astounding. Things like cleaning data, generating custom reports, creating human workflows to solve shortcomings in third…
