Database Cracking

Summary: Presents database cracking: adaptive, incremental reorganization of columnar data during query execution to build partial indexes on‑the‑fly by partitioning data per predicate. Integrated into an RDBMS with minimal kernel changes, enabling self‑organizing, low‑overhead indexing that adapts to shifting workloads and influences optimizer plans.
