" -it's fast, incredibly faster than Postgresql" => "-it's fast, incredibly faster than Postgresql for some dedicated use cases"
Writing a MonetDB provider should be doable indeed, let's find some funding for that, feel free to drop a message here if you have a corresponding budget !
We could either implement a core provider, or add a provider as a Python plugin ( like for DuckDB ) and later on port it to core for example.
@vpicavet My bad, I really should have reread myself before publishing because it lacks this precision : There is already a plugin, what I would like is to add it to the core product. https://plugins.qgis.org/plugins/MonetDB-QGIS/#plugin-about Best regards,

Ok ! Funding welcome :-)
Feature description
Hello,
MonetDB is undoubtedly my favorite database for dataviz. Why ? -it's free -it's open-source -it's fast, incredibly faster than Postgresql -it's easy to install on linux, mac and windows. -it cares about SQL norm -you can use odbc, jdbc, sql alchemy 2, etc... so connected QGIS to MonetDB would be easy. -the team behind it (MonetDB Solutions ) really listens to the users. and the cherry on top is that MonetDB has support for the OGC "Simple Features for SQL" specification

I think this would be a perfect match of two awesome projets, isn't it?
Best regards,
Simon
