Small Materialized Aggregates: A Light Weight Index Structure for Data Warehousing

Summary: Small Materialized Aggregates (SMAs) are a light-weight, flexible index for data warehousing, precomputing many aggregates over small to medium buckets. Applied to TPC-D, SMAs deliver about 100x speedups on Query 1 and offer tunable strategies for efficient query processing. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
