Modularis: Modular Relational Analytics over Heterogeneous Distributed Platforms

Summary: Modularis proposes sub-operators as composable blocks for modular analytics across heterogeneous platforms. Minimal code changes enable portable performance across RDMA, serverless, storage, and outperforms Presto and SingleStore in end-to-end tests. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
