How Achaeans Would Construct Columns in Troy
Summary: Injects column-store functionality into closed-source row DBMSs by using UDFs as a pluggable storage layer, enabling transparent columnar storage/access without source-code changes. Prototype on DBMS‑X yields up to 9× TPC‑H and 17× microbenchmark speedups with minimal user effort. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
