Page As You Go: Piecewise Columnar Access In SAP HANA

Summary: Page loadable columns: use contiguous in-memory pages instead of full columns to ease memory pressure under vectorized workloads. Introduces a new persistency layout and access methods for encoded vectors, order-preserving dictionaries, and inverted indexes; integrated in SAP HANA with experiments on overhead and cold-data use.
