DuckDB Micro is an experimental port of DuckDB to the ESP32-P4 RISC-V microcontroller, targeting a platform with 8 MB of PSRAM and no virtual memory or disk spilling. It packs an analytical SQL engine, CSV/JSON/Parquet support, and a CLI/REST interface into a severely memory-constrained embedded device, demonstrating a genuinely novel combination of technologies.

Target audience: embedded developers, database engine hackers, edge computing researchers
