LocustDB is an experimental, embeddable analytics database written in Rust, designed for extremely fast query performance and storage efficiency on commodity hardware. It ships as a CLI binary with a REPL and can load CSV/CSV.gz files, persist data to disk, and run massively parallel analytical queries.

Use cases

  • analyze billions of records per second on a single desktop pc
  • run fast analytical queries over large csv files
  • embed a high-performance columnar analytics engine in a rust application
  • query hundreds of millions of records directly from disk
  • explore large datasets interactively from the command line

When to choose

  • you need blazing-fast OLAP-style analytics on a single machine
  • you want an embeddable analytics database in Rust
  • you're loading and querying large CSV datasets repeatedly

When to avoid

  • you need a production-hardened database with broad SQL support
  • you require multi-node distributed deployments
  • you need transactional or OLTP workloads
