finlaybw··on Ask HN: Book Recommendation on Database Internals
Took a look at this, but it looks like it is missing the query engine parts, which is one of the things I am currently interesting in learning more about - perhaps more so than the persistence and distributed parts

> "How Query Engines Work" by Andy Grove, you build one in Kotlin: https://leanpub.com/how-query-engines-work

I have come across this, but unfortunately it feels like a book written for someone who already knows the topic. For example, the logical plans did not even bother explaining what logical plans are, where it fits into the whole picture etc https://howqueryengineswork.com/05-logical-plan.html
