Is there plan about support DoltDB and public DoltHub data ?

[Code2Life]

DoltDB is a new distributed database that combining features of Git & MySQL. Dolt also have a DoltHub which hosts public data:

https://www.dolthub.com/discover https://docs.dolthub.com/concepts/dolthub/api

Seems all public data could be queried through Dolthub GraphQL/API endpoint.

If this could be supported on Observablehq as alternative to SQLite, it would be really cool.

Some pros I came up with comparing with SQLite:

• No need to upload sqlite files, as Dolthub hosts data and provide API
• The data size, page to load could be on-demand defined by notebook
• Data would be refreshed upon each run
• Versioning is built-in feature of DoltDB
• Complex query and aggregation could be handled on Dolthub side, saving power of Observablehq side when handling large amount of data

Since there is an API interface to Dolthub-hosted databases (limited to 200 rows, though) you can use it already using the DoltDatabaseClient here: https://observablehq.com/@observablehq/dolt

The nice thing is that this can be used in Public notebooks!

Awesome, thanks a lot !
