🐤 As engineers it is our job to take complexity and simplify it, but when it comes to our data, we tend to do the opposite. We let things grow until we hit a great tipping point — then it's time to pack up and start again elsewhere.... There is a counter data culture being lead with the small data movement. If doing things well matters to you, come join us at Small Data SF in 2 weeks (https://lnkd.in/gkVi_dVs) The set of speakers is unbelievable > MotherDuck Ryan Boyd 🐤 Adi Polak Holden Karau Joe Reis Barr Moses Rebecca Bruggman Barry McCardel Benn Stancil Brian Douglas Colin Zima Dennis Hume elvis kahoro George Fraser Glauber Costa Jacob Matson Jordan Tigani Ravin Kumar Russell Garner Sahil Gupta Sam Alexander Shelby Heinecke, PhD Tahlia DeMaio Teague Sterling Thierry Jean Tristan Handy Upal Saha Zain Hasan Zulfikar Qureshi

2 weeks!! Small Data SF is in 2 weeks!! Some of our hands-on workshops only have a couple seats left in them, so hurry up and register to get your choice. Here are some great workshops with availability: * bem's co-founder and CTO will teach how to take unstructured data (like PNGs, PDFs, etc) and query it in your data warehouse. * Hex is running a data app hackathon with real prizes. Who doesn't want to build a data app? * Estuary will teach you how to get real-time streaming data into your data warehouse with ease. Book your seat while they last! https://lnkd.in/g_abRnUp

Tomorrow at 9am Pacific, MotherDuck co-founder Ryan Boyd 🐤 will join Ryan Dolley in a live session of Super Data Brothers to talk about all things MotherDuck, DuckDB, DuckLake, agentic analytics and more. Join us: https://lnkd.in/gJ_szqAW

At MotherDuck, we want to make it easy for our customers to build Agentic Applications on top of our Database. With that in mind, we have written a guide on proven patterns for building these, as well as built functions with the AI engineer in mind. One of those functions is Use __MD_FILTER_TABLES(), which allows fuzzy search across tables in the current database. These types of functions directly in the database make it faster to give the context needed to your agent, and decrease the wait time for the end user when seeking answers. Take a look at our guide to get started with building your own agents! https://lnkd.in/gNzX3Swm
