Composite Subset Measures

Summary: Introduces composite subset measures that aggregate base records and measures of related multidimensional subsets, extending GROUP BY/CUBE with targeted, multi-level summaries. AW-RA and aggregation workflows express these queries and enable efficient multi-pass, multi-measure sort/scan execution. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
