Less Watts, More Performance: An Intelligent Storage Engine for Data Appliances
Summary: Ibex is an FPGA-accelerated storage engine positioned between storage and the DB engine to off-load query processing. Demonstrates substantial SQL performance gains while reducing data movement, CPU usage, and overall energy in data-appliance workloads. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
