The Query Optimizer in Tandem’s new ServerWare SQL Product
Summary: Introduces ServerWare SQL’s top-down branch-and-bound, rule-driven cost-based optimizer versus NonStop SQL’s bottom-up dynamic programming engine. Highlights extensible cost-based transformations and how rule-set design governs search complexity, with cases favoring dynamic programming. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
