Demonstration of VerdictDB, the Platform-Independent AQP System
Summary: VerdictDB is a platform-independent AQP middleware at the driver, rewriting queries with no DB-internal changes. It employs variational subsampling for SQL-friendly error estimates, yielding up to 100x speedups with near-exact results on Spark SQL and Redshift; open-source under Apache 2.0.
