Redbench: Workload Synthesis From Cloud Traces
Summary: Redbench synthesizes reproducible cloud-warehouse query streams from provider traces, transforming existing benchmarks to capture repetition, string-heavy queries, and other intrinsic workload signals. It exposes optimization effects across four commercial platforms more realistically than TPC-H/DS. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Aug 17 2026)
