Towards a One Size Fits All Database Architecture
Summary: Proposes OctopusDB: a unified 'one‑size‑fits‑all' DB that uses a logical event log as primary storage plus Storage Views (SVs) as alternative physical representations. SVs enable per‑subset row/column/stream/hybrid layouts so the system can emulate diverse engines per workload.
