The first public release of MonetDBe-Python! MonetDBe-Python is a Python frontend for MonetDBe, a blazingly fast column-store database engine. Note that this is a pre-release, and things might still break here and there.
Features included in this release are:
* An easy to install non-service database system! That means you are not required to run a database service in the background.
* A cleaned up and modernized version of the notorious MonetDB column-store as the backend
* SQLite compatible syntax and usage
* `.fetchnumpy()` and `.fetchdf()` methods for super-fast fetching of result dataset
* Linux and OSX binary wheels supplied
What to expect in the future:
* Fast insertions of NumPy arrays and Pandas dataframes
* Windows binary wheels
* Other compatibility and performance improvements
