Database Learning: Toward a Database that Becomes Smarter Every Time

Summary: Database Learning: AQP that improves with each query by learning from past answers and exploiting shared distributions. Verdict on Spark SQL uses maximum entropy to yield tighter estimates; real traces show 73.7% coverage and up to 23x speedups. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
