NOT ON THE CURRENT EDITION
This blip is not on the current edition of the Radar. If it was on one of the last few editions, it is likely that it is still relevant. If the blip is older, it might no longer be relevant and our assessment might be different today. Unfortunately, we simply don't have the bandwidth to continuously review blips from previous editions of the Radar.

pg_mooncake is a PostgreSQL extension that adds columnar storage and vectorized execution. Columnstore tables are stored as Iceberg or Delta Lake tables in the local file system or S3-compatible cloud storage. pg_mooncake supports loading data from file formats like Parquet, CSV and even Hugging Face datasets. It can be a good fit for heavy data analytics that typically requires columnar storage, as it removes the need to add dedicated columnar store technologies into your stack.
