GRewriter: Practical Query Rewriting with Automatic Rule Set Expansion in GaussDB
Summary: GRewriter: a bolt‑on, extensible query rewriter for GaussDB using a rule language (G‑DSL), rule index and history cache to select rewrites per query instead of pipeline‑wide, enabling coexistence of diverse rules with low engineering cost. An offline generator with novel enumeration and an equivalence theorem produces formally verified, highly expressive rules; deployed with 100+ rules, <1% overhead and large production latency reductions.
