Hi HN, we've just released Tonbo 0.2.0, now supporting S3 remote storage and Python bindings.<p>Tonbo is an edge-first embedded database using Arrow and Parquet, built in Rust for OLAP workloads.<p>While S3 is gaining a lot of attention, I wanted to share why we prioritized Python APIs.<p>On centralized servers, distributed and scaling data storage are relatively straightforward, but they become challenging on a local device like a laptop. Meanwhile most of the solusions are too complicated for an experiment or your intuition.<p>Python support leverages its popularity in scientific computing, AI, and data analysis, simplifying local data-intensive app development.<p>Python bindings offer an ORM-like experience, enabling developers to focus on features.<p>We also plan to add WebAssembly support in the future. What do you think? We'd love to hear your feedback.<p>Tonbo performs well; see our benchmark: <a href="https://github.com/tonbo-io/tonbo/pull/198">https://github.com/tonbo-io/tonbo/pull/198</a><p>Why use Tonbo to store data on S3?<p>Tonbo will provides a unified storage solution on S3, enable SQLite and PostgreSQL to act as stateless query engines.<p>Stay tuned!
