Open source DBT core alternative written in Rust (30x faster)

172 points Background_Call6280

Hey everyone,

TLDR: Louis here from Quary - we have spent the past few months re-engineering DBT core (python) into rust to create a fast data transformation (SQL inference & modelling) package in Rust.

With DBT Core (Data Build Tool) you would need to spin up a server to run Python to make the package work. Thanks to Rust WASM we are able to make the transformation engine portable so that it runs entirely in the browser.

We wanted to give back to this community so we have decided to Open Source the entire project under an MIT license to give back to this community.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts in the comments! (A GitHub star is always appreciated 😃)
