ByteCard: Enhancing ByteDance’s Data Warehouse with Learned Cardinality Estimation
Summary: ByteCard trains and deploys cardinality estimators in ByteHouse, replacing Selinger-style estimates for huge-scale queries. Balancing accuracy and practicality (latency, size, training cost), it yields up to 30% lower 99th percentile latency on real data. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
