DUCKDB NOW SHIPS INSIDE DBT V2

duckdb.org6 min read

Summary from the TLDR Data newsletter

dbt v2's Rust-based Fusion engine now includes a built-in DuckDB adapter, removing the need for a separate adapter installation. It adds DuckLake and Iceberg REST catalog support, writes queryable project metadata as Parquet, and performs SQL analysis that finds type or column problems before warehouse execution. The migration path starts by testing the opt-in v2 parser against existing projects.
