> DuckDB is an in-process SQL OLAP database management system

I don’t understand what it means. Can someone explain? I don’t get why they put such a complicated claim with unexplained acronyms on their homepage.

When I shop for a db, when should I consider duck DB compared to for example Postgres or MySQL? Or do they compete with arrow or parquet? To me it’s unclear because they don’t say what they compete against.
