Hi Saleh, Long story short, there is no such plans. Having said that, datafusion and ballista do support substrait format, so in theory you could offload duckdb queries and run them on ballista/datafusion, but it’s far from simple switch of execution engines.
I would be interested to hear your use case, and why don’t you simply use datafusion and ballista directly?
