MorphoSys: Automatic Physical Design Metamorphosis for Distributed Database Systems
Summary: MorphoSys dynamically “metamorphoses” distributed physical design by jointly learning partitioning, replication, and placement choices from workload changes. A novel concurrency-control and update-propagation scheme enables efficient transactions during online redesign. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
