The Case for Network-Accelerated Query Processing
Summary: Offload common OLAP operators (e.g., aggregation/filtering) to programmable switches so network devices perform in‑flight query processing, turning data movement into computation. Prelim results: >2× improvement over best MPP plans at 25Gbps and promising linear gains with faster networks. (summarized by gpt-5-mini on Feb 09 2026)
