DuckDB’s WebAssembly Client Allows Querying Iceberg Datasets in the Browser

DuckDB has recently introduced end-to-end interaction with Iceberg REST Catalogs directly within a browser tab, requiring no infrastructure setup. The new feature leverages DuckDB-Wasm, a WebAssembly port of DuckDB that runs in the browser, allowing users to query, read, and write Iceberg tables in a serverless manner.
