Thank you!

Yes, in terms of federated queries, there are similarities, but Spice is designed to be much smaller, faster, and lightweight (single-binary, 140MB) so you can run it next to your application as a sidecar, or eventually even in the browser. Spice also gives you more options and flexibility for materialization, so you can choose where and how to store local materialized data.
