Demystifying the Database

Please join us for our next Code4Y’all The Woodlands Tacos & Code on October 15th at 7pm! 🌮💻

Databases power nearly everything we build today, yet we rarely think about how they work. Understanding how data is stored, retrieved, and organized helps us write better code and optimize performance. In this talk, we’ll implement a toy database inspired by SQLite, using the Zig programming language, and explore key components like Page Storage, B+ Trees, the Query Planner, and the SQL Interface. By the end, you’ll understand how these systems work together and see that databases are smart engineering, not magic. Join us to dive deep into how databases handle your data!
