Database Architectures for New Hardware

Summary: Tutorial reframing DBMS performance around modern multi-level memory hierarchies, where CPU/cache behavior—not I/O—dominates. Surveys simulation and hardware-counter profiling, data placement/prefetching, and challenges in adapting systems to deep, multicore architectures. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
