Yeah getting it into something lightweight and runnable so the LLM can quickly iterate is key!

I suspect no, they probably care more about the iceberg parts than the DuckDB parts? but this is purely speculative.

Another good strategy is partitioning your writes to object storage by date / time (i.e. by hour) so you can easily write naive queries for analysis and backfills, like `select * from 's3://my_bucket/year/month/day/hour/*.json'`

One of the notions we think about quite a bit at @motherduck.com is "handling data before it becomes big" and I think this example from @tigrisdata.com really nails it. The trick here is parsing the JSON on insert so its really quick to query it.
