A good note that the author mentions is that this is not a comprehensive text (its only about 150 pages), but a great text to get an overview for how to build a query engine. Creating a real query engine from scratch could take up volumes of explanations, and I think this text took the correct approach of telling you all the components of the architecture and explaining how they should work based on brief code examples. The author also has provided a github repo with more comprehensive examples that you can dive into if interested. If you are interested in building or maintaining your own query engine then this book is the best reference I can find!
A quick note is that the code is in Kotlin, but I followed the examples and did the best I could to translate the examples to Rust, I felt like this was the best way to figure out how to structure a query engine in the language you want it in.
