Searchlight: Enabling Integrated Search and Exploration over Large Multidimensional Data
Summary: Searchlight embeds constraint programming as a first-class DBMS operator, unifying scalable multidimensional data with expressive search and optimization. Speculative Solve–Validate searches in-memory synopses, validates candidates on data, and balances CPU/I/O for scalable execution. (summarized by gpt-5.6-luna on Jul 24 2026)
