About supercoco9

As Head of Developer —and Agent— Relations at QuestDB, I help developers make the most of their (fast) data. These days that increasingly means AI agents: I make QuestDB easy for an agent to use through skills, MCP servers, machine-legible docs, standard interfaces like SQL, REST, and Parquet, and a cookbook of ready-made recipes, so agents produce correct, fast results with as few tokens as possible. I also make sure the core team behind QuestDB listens to absolutely every piece of feedback I get, and I facilitate collaboration in our open source repository.

I love data, big and small, and I enjoy processing it with streaming engines, ML models, SQL, NoSQL, graph, in-memory, and time-series databases. I prefer distributed, scalable, always-on systems.

Before working at QuestDB I spent over 20 years developing software professionally and sharing what I learnt with the community, including three years as a Developer Advocate at AWS and five years as a Google Developer Expert in Cloud. I've spoken at events in over 25 countries, mentored dozens of start-ups, taught for 6 years at different universities, and trained hundreds of professionals on cloud and data engineering.

    By the way, I presented this repository at the FOSDEM conference just a few days ago. If you want to have more context about what it does, or see a walk-though of the different com…

    Thank you! (original article writer here) DuckDB is awesome. A couple of comments here. First of all, this is totally my fault, as I didn't explain it properly. I am trying to simu…

    Hi. Sorry if my query offended you. I basically executed literally what Clickhouse recommends at their guides for deduplication https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/guides/developer/dedu…

    I enjoyed reading about how technical decisions are made to make databases smarter and optimise without the need to relay on users fine-tuning obscure configuration parameters
