Elastic Pipelining in an In-Memory Database Cluster

Summary: Elastic pipelining in an in-memory cluster enables runtime intra-node parallelism via an elastic iterator model and a dynamic scheduler. Adapts CPU allocation to live pipeline workloads, achieving near-full utilization and gains vs open-source systems. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
