Tackling Hardware/Software co-design from a database perspective
Summary: Introduces Enzian (experimental hardware) and doppioDB (research DB engine) to explore hardware/software co-design for data processing. Argues tight co-design enables new execution models, memory/layout optimizations, and system-level tradeoffs beyond reactive software fixes. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
