What are Query Engines?
Query engines are software tools designed to retrieve and process data from databases or large datasets in response to user queries. They efficiently interpret and execute search requests, optimizing the retrieval process to deliver accurate and relevant results quickly. Query engines can handle structured, semi-structured, and unstructured data, making them versatile for various applications such as data analytics, business intelligence, and search engines. They often support complex query languages like SQL and can integrate with multiple data sources to provide comprehensive insights. By optimizing data retrieval, query engines enhance the performance and usability of data-driven applications and decision-making processes.
