AirIndex: Versatile Index Tuning Through Data and Storage

Summary: AirIndex is a data- and I/O-aware index builder that tunes hierarchical designs to minimize latency. Graph-based optimization handles inter-layer dependencies and a broad design space to yield existing indices or novel hybrids, with gains over LMDB and learned indexes.
