Our database is heroku postgresql database. What's the best way to get this working with DuckDB? I see there's a postgresql connector but I'm not totally following how to deploy it. Would I just spin up a dyno with the docker image / custom build pack and connect it to the DB?

Doesn't postgres have a columnar option? If so, you could prob get better performance for your analytical interactions if you switched some tables to columnar.

Otherwise check out postgres scanner. https://github.com/duckdblabs/postgres_scanner

They have a blog entry about it too: https://motherduck.com/blog/duckdb-ecosystem-newsletter-two/
