Might be wrong, but it looks like duckdb lets you host the database engine in your process, so you don't pay for IPC. It is the opposite of Redis, as you use it to share memory between processes

I'm confused by your sentence structure. Are you saying DuckDB lets you share memory between processes?

If so, that's the opposite of what DuckDB does. Under to "When not to use DuckDB" section of their website, they say:

> "[Do not use DuckDB when] writing to a single database from multiple concurrent processes"

Honestly, that's the most baffling part. I can't imagine wanting any database that's locked in a single process.
