🐍 Ibis: One Python API for 20+ Data Backends#
Tired of learning a different API for every data engine? Ibis solves exactly that.
✨ What Is Ibis?#
Ibis is an open-source Python library that lets you manipulate data with a single API, regardless of the backend you use:
🦆 DuckDB, 🐘 PostgreSQL, ❄️ Snowflake, ⚡ BigQuery, 🔥 PySpark… and 20+ total!
🔑 Key Features#
🔄 Full Portability – Iterate locally with DuckDB and deploy remotely in production by changing a single line. 🤝 Python + SQL Together – Mix Python code with SQL queries in the same workflow. ⚡ Lazy DataFrames – Expressions compile to native backend SQL, leveraging the full power of each engine. 🔍 Interactive Mode – Explore data in notebooks or the terminal with immediate results.
💡 In Simple Terms#
Imagine working with pandas, but tomorrow your company decides to migrate from DuckDB to Snowflake. With Ibis, you don’t need to rewrite your code — just change the connection. The same API works everywhere.
