E2ETune: End-to-End Knob Tuning via Fine-tuned Generative Language Model

Summary: E2ETune frames DB knob tuning as seq2seq generation: fine-tunes a generative language model on synthetic workload→promising-configuration pairs produced by a novel data-generation pipeline. Produces one-shot, out-of-the-box config recommendations that match SOTA with far fewer workload replays. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
