ALEX: An Updatable Adaptive Learned Index

Jialin Ding, Umar Farooq Minhas, Jia Yu +9

Recent work on "learned indexes" has changed the way we look at the decades-old field of DBMS indexing. The key idea is that indexes can be thought of as "models" that predict the…

Moment-Based Quantile Sketches for Efficient High Cardinality Aggregation Queries

Edward Gan, Jialin Ding, Kai Sheng Tai +2

Interactive analytics increasingly involves querying for quantiles over sub-populations of high cardinality datasets. Data processing engines such as Druid and Spark use mergeable…
