Column Stores For Wide and Sparse Data
Summary: Argues column-stores sustain performance on extremely wide tables and naturally compress/skip sparse attributes, avoiding degradation common in row-stores. Proposes column-stores as a promising storage layer for Semantic Web, XML, and GEM-style schemas. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
