A universal query engine in Rust (with Predrag Gruevski)


Listen Later

Trustfall is a library based on a simple question - what happens if we can query absolutely anything? If you could join REST APIs and databases with filesystems and dockerfiles? It’s possible in theory because those are all just datasources. Predrag Gruevski is trying to make it easy by building a universal query engine, with pluggable datasources, all in Rust.

This week we dive into Trustfall to figure out how it works. How do you model nearly anything as a datasource? How do you make it easy to extend? And what does it take to optimize a query that’s going to be spread out over multiple systems and potentially multiple servers? Questions, questions, questions - all about the act of asking our systems questions. 😃
