It’s 2026 and we’re still happily using PostgreSQL 🐘
Open source, boring in the best possible way, stable, predictable, and without surprise license changes every six months ⚖️
Sometimes “just use Postgres” really is the best choice 🪄

Mission accomplished: Exam #Databases graded! This year's results were good: 130 out of 173 students passed the course: 75%. Lowest grade: 1.7; Highest grade: 9.8
Do you really need Kafka for every queue? 🤔

We asked the students of this year's #Databases course for their favorite track, and you can now listen to all of them at:
The #SQL GROUP BY ALL syntax introduced by analytical systems like DuckDB, Databricks, and Snowflake will be part of the next SQL standard. #Databases

Anna's Archive will provide the audio files too. The AI music generation tech bros will be so happy... #Fail (or, likely, they already know and used the same vulnerability to get the audio)
Some nice #SQL in the wild in the blog post! Examples for SQLite should work for DuckDB with minimal adaption (which is probably your system to go to if you want to recreate the nice analysis and visualisations on this much data on a single machine). #Databases

There is now a slightly bigger music database than the one we provided in the #Databases course: The metadata for 256 million of #Spotify tracks are torrented as 9 files of about 22GB each by Anna's Archive

Anna's Archive really has lots of books. Here, as a random example, Halpin and Morgan's "Information Modeling and Relational Databases": https://annas-archive.li/search?q=Information+Modeling%2C+Relational+Databases

I was invited by students to give a public mini lecture "Ethical Data Management" on Monday 8 December at 17:30h. in the Huygens building's Giga-Bite space. #Databases
