Anarchy in the Database: Abigale Kim on DuckDB and DBMS Extensibility

In this episode of the DuckDB in Research series we explore how DuckDB is transforming the world of databases — from research to real-world applications. Our guest, Abigale Kim (PhD Student, University of Wisconsin–Madison), joins us to unpack her VLDB 2025 paper “Anarchy in the Database: A Survey and Evaluation of DBMS Extensibility.” We discuss: 💡 How extensibility empowers — and sometimes breaks — modern database systems 🧩 Why DuckDB’s approach to extensions is safer, faster, and more developer-friendly than Postgres or MySQL ⚙️ How research is shaping the next generation of in-process analytical databases 🚀 Why extensibility could redefine collaboration between academia and industry If you care about database systems, performance engineering, or bridging research and production, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
