This podcast features interviews with Computer Science researchers. Hosted by Dr. Jack Waudby researchers are interviewed, highlighting the problem(s) they tackled, solutions they developed, and how their findings can be applied in practice. This podcast is for industry practitioners, researchers, and students, aims to further narrow the gap between research and practice, and to generally make awesome Computer Science research more accessible. We have 2 types of episode: (i) Cutting Edge (red/blue logo) where we talk to researchers about their latest work, and (ii) High Impact (gold/silver logo) where we talk to researchers about their influential work.

In this episode of the DuckDB in Research series, host Jack Waudby sits down with Mihail Stoian, PhD student at the Data Systems Lab, University of Technology Nuremberg, to unpack the cutting-edge ideas behind Parachute, a new approach to robust query processing and bidirectional information passing in modern analytical databases.
We explore how Parachute bridges theory and practice, combining concepts from instance-optimal algorithms and semi-join filtering to boost performance in DuckDB, the in-process analytical SQL engine that’s reshaping how research meets real-world data systems.
Mihail discusses:
Whether you're a database researcher, systems engineer, or curious practitioner, this deep-dive reveals how academic innovation continues to shape modern data infrastructure.
