About Me

I'm Joris, a programmer and database enthusiast. I'm currently a Staff Software Engineer at a company that builds time series analytics software.

Why am I starting this blog? Because of the evolution of database technologies and the new possibilities they bring. In this blog, I'll explore topics related to database architecture, time series, query languages, composable data systems, and programming in general.

The recent emergence of technologies like Apache Arrow & DataFusion, DuckDB, and the data lakehouse architecture has made building custom databases more accessible than ever. These innovations are reshaping the data landscape, and I'm excited to delve into them and share my findings with you.
