I'd also recommend "How Query Engines Work" for a good practical exercise in the topic: https://andygrove.io/how-query-engines-work/ https://andygrove.io/how-query-engines-work/ . I think one should go already have a high-level overview of what individual parts make up a query engine and what there purpose is, as it only touches on that lightly.
- gavinray 3y agoI own the book and would agree -- only reason I didn't suggest this is that the areas on query-planning and optimization are a bit thin. IMO it's great if you want a holistic view of building a query engine start-to-finish with just enough detail to build a basic implementation. I probably learned more from the ~100 pages in this book than I did from most other sources.
