Data-based: Going Beyond the Dataframe

​Learn how to go from local data exploration to scalable cloud analytics without changing your workflow. In this live demo, we’ll show how MotherDuck builds on DuckDB to give data scientists a fast, flexible, and Python-friendly way to analyze data—no infrastructure setup, no petabyte-scale headaches.

​You’ll see how to:

• ​Easily query CSVs, Parquet, and other file types across local and cloud storage

• ​Interoperate seamlessly with pandas, polars, and notebooks

• ​Store, query, and share your results in one portable MotherDuck database file

• ​Scale up to the cloud only when you need it

​Ideal for: data scientists who already love Python and want a smoother way to work with real-world data, whether it lives on their laptop or in the cloud.
